Electricity is one of the factors that cause electrolysis.
Explanation:
- The use of electrical energy to induce a chemical transformation is known as electrolysis.
- The decomposition (breakdown) of water into hydrogen and oxygen using an electric current is perhaps the most well-known example of electrolysis.
- Other than water, the same technique can be used to break down substances.
- It employs a direct electric current (DC) to stimulate a chemical reaction that would otherwise be non-spontaneous.
- Electrolysis is a crucial step in the commercial separation of elements from naturally occurring sources like ores using an electrolytic cell.
- Electrolysis is the process of separating water into hydrogen and oxygen gas using an electrical current.
- When hydrogen gas is created through electrolysis, it can be utilized to generate electricity in a fuel cell.
- To generate electricity, a fuel cell combines separated hydrogen and oxygen.
