Answer:
The container in which electrolysis is carried out is called electrolytic cell.
Answer :
The container in which electrolysis is carried out is called an Electrolytic cell.
✦It is an electrochemical cell in the other way.
✦It uses electrical energy to facilitate a non-spontaneous redox reaction.
✦They are used for the electrolysis of certain compounds.
✦It is often used to decompose chemical compounds in the electrolysis process.
Components of electrolytic cells :
- Cathode
- Anode
- Electrolyte
✦The cathode is negatively charged for electrolytic cells.
✦The anode is positively charged for electrolytic cells.
✦External electric current flows into the cathode of the electrolytic cell.
✦This negative charge attracts the dissociated positive ions present in the electrolyte.
✦So positively charged ions are deposited onto the cathode and the negatively charged ions flow towards the anode simultaneously.
