Electrolysis 1. Electrolysis : The process due to which a chemical compound in fused state or in aqueous state conducts direct electric current, resulting in the discharge of ions of an electrolyte so as to form neutral atoms at their respective electrodes is called electrolysis. 2. Electrolyte : A chemical compound in fused state or in aqueous state which conducts direct electric current and at the same time decomposes to form neutral atoms at the electrodes is called an electrolyte. 3. Electrodes : The metal rods or plates through which current enters or leaves an electrolyte are called electrodes. 4. Cathode : The electrode connected to the negative terminal of a battery is called cathode. 5. Anode : The electrode connected to the positive terminal of a battery is called anode. 6. Cations : The positively charged ions which discharge at cathode are called cations. 7. Anions : The negatively charged ions which discharge at anode are called anions. 8. Electrolytic Cell : A glass vessel (or any other insulating material), containing two electrodes and an electrolyte is collectively called electrolytic cell. 9. Ionisation : The process of formation of positively charged and negatively charged ions from the molecules of polar covalent compounds is called ionisation. 10. Electrolytic Dissociation : The process in which separation of ions of an electrovalent compound takes place on heating or in aqueous solution is called electrolytic dissociation. 1 Key Points
