Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas due to the passage of an electric current. The reaction has a standard potential of −1.23 V, meaning it ideally requires a potential difference of 1.23 volts to split water.
Electrolysis is the process of using an electrical current to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen gas. The electrical charge that is applied to water will break the chemical bond between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms and produce charged particles called ions
