Question

What is electrolysis if water

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas due to the passage of an electric current.It ideally requires a potential difference of 1.23 volts to split water.

Answer 2

Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas due to the passage of an electric current.It ideally requires a potential difference of 1.23 volts to split water. This technique can be used to make hydrogen gas and breathable oxygen. However, as hydrogen is an important industrial commodity, by far most industrial methods produce hydrogen from natural gas instead, in the steam reforming process.
