Answer:

Explanation:

Electrectrolysis of water is the decomposition of water (H2​O) into oxygen (O2​) and hydrogen gas (H2​) due to an electric current being passed through the water.

An electrical power source is connected to two electrodes, or two plates (typically made from some inert metal such as platinum, stainless steel or iridium) which are placed in the water. Hydrogen will appear at the cathode (the negatively charged electrode, where electrons enter the water), and oxygen will appear at the anode (the positively charged electrode).

Answer:

yep

Explanation:

Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas due to the passage of an electric current.

This technique can be used to make hydrogen gas, a main component of hydrogen fuel, and breathable oxygen gas, or can mix the two into oxyhydrogen, which is also usable as fuel, though more volatile and dangerous.

It is also called water splitting. It requires a minimum potential difference of 1.23 volts to split water.
