Electrochemistry and Redox Processes · Semester 1

Electrolysis: Using Electricity for Chemical Change

Students will investigate the process of electrolysis, where electrical energy is used to drive non-spontaneous chemical reactions, and its basic applications.

Key Questions

  1. How can electricity be used to break down compounds?
  2. What are the products formed during the electrolysis of water or molten lead(II) bromide?
  3. What are some simple uses of electrolysis in everyday life?
