5Electric current in solutions and fused electrolytes. Law of Electrolysis

Filling the gap

1. Electrolysis is the passing of a direct electric current through an ionic substance that is either molten or dissolved in a suitable solvent, producing chemical reactions at the electrodes and a decomposition of the materials.

2. Faraday's laws of electrolysis relate the amount of liberated mass at an electrode to the quantity of electricity passing through the electrode. ... Faraday's first law states that the amount of current passed through an electrode is directly proportional to the amount of material liberated from it.

3. Faraday's second law of electrolysis states that, when the same quantity of electricity is passed through several electrolytes, the mass of the substances deposited are proportional to their respective chemical equivalent or equivalent
