Electrolysis - Coggle Diagram
Electrolysis
activity 10.2
observation:deposition of a reddish brown substances at - electrode,liberation of gas in the positive electrode
-
-
-
-
-
eg: carbon(graphite),platinum
Electroplating
-
the metal that needs to be plated should be used as the positive electrode, the object that will be plated should be used as the negetive electrode
-
eg for plating metals: nikel, chromium
metals like copper,silver,gold,nickel,chromium are frequently plated.
electrolytes
eg:salt solution,copper sulphate solution,acidified warter
-
-
Non- electrolytes
-
eg: distilled warter,kerosene
-
-
-
-
-
-
hydrogen gas evolves at the negetive electrode,oxtgen gas evolves at the positive elctrode if the gas burns with a pop sound then it is hydrogen.
industries that electrolysis is used for, extraction of various metals(sodium, aluminium)
industrial manufacture of causic soda
electroplating
