Electrolysis is a process that uses electrical energy to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction. It involves breaking down compounds into their constituent elements through oxidation and reduction reactions.
An electrolyte is a substance that conducts electricity when dissolved or molten, facilitating electrolysis.
The anode is the electrode where oxidation occurs during electrolysis. It attracts negatively charged ions or anions.
The cathode is the electrode where reduction occurs during electrolysis. It attracts positively charged ions or cations.
