Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
In electrolysis, what happens to the ions in the electrolyte?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Electrolysis involves passing an electric current through a liquid called an electrolyte.
Step 2: The electrolyte contains ions, which are charged particles.
Step 3: When the electric current flows, the ions move towards the electrodes (the positive and negative terminals).
Step 4: Positive ions (cations) move towards the negative electrode (cathode) and gain electrons (reduction).
Step 5: Negative ions (anions) move towards the positive electrode (anode) and lose electrons (oxidation).
Step 6: This movement and change of electrons cause chemical reactions to occur at the electrodes.
