Question:
What additional factor must we consider for electrolysis of aqueous solutions compared to electrolysis of molten compounds?
Author: MiqdaamAnswer:
- Water is also involved - water ionises (splits) & could therefore possibly move to the electrodes - Hydrogen (H+) is produced at the cathode if the other '+' charged ion is more reactive than hydrogen (refer to the image below)
