- Electrolysis is cheaper compared to other methods and generally the results are permanent.
- The solution used which is made up of electrolysis keeps the metal free from corrosion or rusting.
- Electrolysis makes the metal attractive and gives an expensive appearance.
- Many of the substances which are useful are prepared from electrolysis process.
- Chlorine can be prepared by electrolysis of a solution of common salt.
- Hydrogen is also prepared by electrolysis of water.
- Heavy water for example Deuterium oxide which is used in nuclear reactor is also prepared from electrolysis of water.

Electrolysis is a technique that uses direct current (DC) power to power chemical reactions that are not otherwise spontaneous.
Cations are reduced at the cathode and anions are oxidized at the anode.
Explanation:
Advantages of electrolysis:
- Electrolysis is used to permanently remove facial hair from the body.
- This electrolysis is an effective way to remove hair compared to creams, ointments, waxes, and medicines.
- Electrolysis is cheaper than other methods and the results are generally permanent.
- The electrolyte used protects the metal from corrosion and rust.
- Electrolysis makes metals attractive and gives them an expensive look.
- Many of the useful substances are produced by the electrolysis process.
- Chlorine can be produced by electrolyzing a solution of salt. Hydrogen is also produced by the electrolysis of water.
- Heavy water such as deuterium oxide used in nuclear reactors is also produced by electrolysis of water.
- Electrolysis is a safe and effective way to remove hair.
- Electrolysis of a metal solution yields pure metal. Impurities from the metal are removed by electrolysis.
- Some metals such as silver, copper, lead, zinc and nickel are refined or refined by an electrolytic refining process
