- What Is Electrolysis | Reactions | Chemistry | FuseSchool
Electrolysis is electrical current flow through a liquid which causes chemical changes. The liquid can be a molten ionic compound or aqueous solution. The liquid will contain free-flowing positive ions and negative ions. The positive ions are called cations, and the negative ions are called anions.
Electrodes are submerged in the liquid (electrolyte solution) and connected to an electrical cell. The electrons will start to flow in the wires and this will cause one electrode to become positively charged (the anode) and the other negatively charged (the cathode). This has an immediate knock-on effect in the molten liquid, and the ions in it. The positive ions in the liquid (electrolyte) are attracted to the negative electrode (cathode). The negative ions in the liquid (electrolyte), is going to be attracted to the positive electrode (anode). This is because opposite electrical charges attract. When the ions meet the electrodes, electron exchange happens and this triggers a chemical reaction. Remember that electrolysis can also take place in ionic solutions as well as molten compounds. The more concentrated the solution, the greater the ion flow rate. Ion flow rate can also be increased by increasing the potential difference or voltage across the cell.

You've just saved my chemistry GCSE. I haven't been able to understand this all year and I finally understand it the day before my exam 😅
Tara Beth how did it go?
Hope u did well X xxx
Same here 1 year later
Shihab legend has it she didn't show up for the exam
Should be grateful you understood it before the exama not after lol
OMG, thanks sooo much... you are better than my chemistry teacher, She couldn't teach me electrolysis in two years while you sir taught it to me in just 5 minutes!
Correction 5 minutes AND 10 seconds! HAH!!!!!
Muja lak I agree
there's no point blaming your teacher for you not understanding something
same thing with me also muja lak
i too agree bro...
sir walter was very true when he said...
"if you don't like physics then probably you have learned it from a wrong teacher"
same thing implies on chemistry too😊😊
I am a teacher, and you are a very good teacher teacher.
Thank you - it is great to hear positive feedback from other teachers.
all a school needs a good amount of simplicity and in my opinion kids will love it a lot more
U sound like a kid
Much easily to understand..
@@fuseschool positive and negative can work together
3 years of not understanding electrolysis at school and it's stuck in my head from a 5 minute video!!! Thanks! :)
Excellent!! I remember finding electrolysis SO hard to understand at school, and then when watching and uploading this video, I finally understood it myself - just 10 years too late for me! (I'm not the Chemistry teacher!)
Thank you so much this is so clear to me my science teacher wasn't so clear about it
Hahaha 10 years are a lot mate!
lol, same here but not 3 years, more like 1 month.
Same, morning of my mock😂
a quick lesson that retains in my memory. well done
Imagine having A chemistry Teacher like him at school...
Easy A+ :( unfortunately our tracher is so shit
@@twentysins1988 *teacher
@@twentysins1988 so was your English teacher XD
I've my chemistry exam tommorow and the way you explained it was incredible, I'm definitely passing my exam tomorrow!! thank youuu
Hope it went well 🙂
Am having my exam tmrw and am confused 😭😭😭
@@hanaamada2 How are you confused? Ain't even that hard...
Thank you so much. This was so helpful. My chemistry teacher kind of rushed over the beginning of electrochemistry and electrolysis so when he moved on I was still confused about the structure of the beaker and power supply and why the ions flowed the way they did. This video connected all the dots for me.
Glad you found it helpful!
Sup my fellow 9th graders
I would just like to say: thank you SO much for this video! Before this, I kind of got the idea of electrolysis, but it seemed so complicated to me. The textbook confused me, but with this video, it just clicked inside my head!! You explain it so clearly. Once again, a massive thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
This saved me .I wasn't able to understand the concept for a while but this was simple to follow and not too long which meant it won't start to get boring.thankyou so much
Glad you liked it :)
thanks a lot for all of these videos, I have my igcse's in four months and this helps a lot!!!
I’ve been studying this for a term and never got it.. this 5 minutes video just made me understand so much more. Thanks!
This actually really helped me. Im bad in chemistry and never understood electrolysis till now. The example was amazing btw easier for most people to understand through examples
Hello! I am a Chemistry teacher and I was looking for interesting videos to show to my lecture group next week. I know FuseSchool channel is one of the best out there!
For this particular video, I noticed a tiny error at around 2:14 min. The battery is placed the wrong way around with respect to the movement of electrons. (Same animation mistake at 5th minute)
The battery is correct at 3:30min though. :-)
Thanks again for a great video!
Thank you for spotting that - you are completely correct. Thanks.
Mrs Angela Tie i
The anode is also mistaken for the positive side and vice versa at 4:43
Good eye, but note: at the fifth minute they are correct it's just at 2:14 that they enlarged the white + and - sign wrong
Omg thanks I was like??? When I saw that. It’s hard to forget that everything online (no matter how professional looking) must be fact checked
Electrolysis means splitting by electricity. An electricity is applied to separate an ionic compound when it is molten or dissolved. There is a battery operated between the positive and negative electrode. Positive will attract the negative and negative will attract the positive during the process of electrolysis. At the down portion there will be electrolyte. For the main attempt of electrolysis, it should made of ions and it have to be molten or dissolved so, the ions are free to move. The positive calles anode and the negative one called cathode.
2:!3 is the direction of electrons wrong or am I missing something ?
GOD BLESS FUSE SCHOOL. I'm sorry but I don't really like my teacher because of certain disputes and I do all the learning by myself. This has helped me a whole bunch and I'd love to thank the team at fuse school like srsly you guys are putting out amazing content.
Thanks dude love you!!! You made me get good marks in my exams. LOVE YOUR EFFORTS!!!!
Fuse school is absolutely the best...I could understand things in few minutes which I've been struggling to learn for past few years..this is sooo helpful ..thanks❤️
Thanks for the kind words!
Nice video :D - I saved it to my 'Chemistry' playlist
such a gud video... I really understood electrolysis in juz 5 mins....thank u sooooooo much!
I just started this topic and it was quite helpful watching this as it helped me understand
Only 5 mins of video helped me understand the topic clearly which I even couldn't understand in a month of the topic studying,Great,Gonna subscribe!!
THANK YOU. MY CHEMISTY TEACHER COULDN'T TEACH THIS TO ME. I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA FAIL BUT NO.
*GOD BLESS*
Thank you! Right now I am sitting home with a broken leg, and I tried to learn by myself from the manual, but I didn't understand a thing. Now I know, thank you 👍❤
Glad it helped!
This was so beautiful and made the concept feel so easy ! Thank you so much, Kudos to the whole team ! ♡
It is a great thing that you have taught in detail about electrolysis
This was a phenomenal explanation! I wish these videos existed when I was in high school
Absolute legend!
You have xplained it sooo wellll... Thanx a lotttttt.... U hv saved my chemexam
thanks for helping me with knowing what electrolysis is and you helped me with my science fair project!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much!!! You are better than my chemistry teacher, now I understand the lesson :)
Ok, this video is really good! Great job. :)
great video, retained a lot of information recommended for all you chem students out there
This was perfect! I have a much better understanding of electrolysis. Online work has been hard and without an actual teacher I've been struggling. definitely subscribing!
Great to hear! Thank you!
I had lots of doubts and now they are solved
Thanks to Fuseschool
Thanks. I wasnt able to understand this process also after trying a lot ... but after i watched this video i understood clearly.
Thank you... This is very brief and understanding you have helped a guy Out🤩.
I have to confess that I was having problems understanding the chapter electrolysis of my book. And then I searched for the topic on youtube and got this video. This video has made me so clear about the topic
That is so great to hear 😊❤️
THIS IS SO HELPFUL THANK YOU VERY MUCH, BLESS YOUR SOUL
Thank you. Great video. Please note "current is the movement of charge". Perhaps consider the equations: and the relationship a charge has to an electric field as a mass to an acceleration field (both equations have the same form and were created by Albert Einstein see the charge - distance, and the mass - distance business. 'Charge' does not exist just like mass does not exist. Charge is introduced to an electric field and a force V is caused or appears somehow. Just as mass is introduced to an acceleration field and force F is caused or appears somehow. Electrical force and mechanical force are the only things we can sense or perceive they exist. Otherwise mass has no effect and charfe has no effect and we will never know they were there - hence their 'non existence'. Electrons exist. These little ( - ) charged particles flow as they are FORCED to flow by the charge/ electric field product; force (V). Electrons are particles from the mass/acceleration field business. Very good video thank you.

@@carlostavares6052 gosh :o
Great video , very helpful! :)
So simply yet clearly explained!
This video is very helpful.It cleared all my concepts of chemistry
broooooooooooooooooooooo my teacher could NEVER explain electrolysis like this. May you get a raise in whatever job you have
Haha thanks!
thanks... now my student can understand tommorrow
I've been trying for a year to understand electrolysis to no success. But after watching this video for just 3 minutes i completely understood it.
You tube is the best teacher ever🤩🤩🤩
FuseSchool you have saved me many times from horrible online lessons, thank you for your lessons!
You are so welcome! Always happy to help!
This channel is underrated
My teacher taught me this at 8th standard and now im in highschool and i don't know the concept clearly until i saw this video... Thank you
What a brilliant video and other videos are amazing. Thank you
This was so helpful!! Your channel has helped me so much!!!
I’m so happy rn thank you so much
Got my chemistry GCSE tomorrow morning. Needed this
Thanks for the strategies you have contributed here.
Thank you very much! This helped me in my chem studies a lot!!! Really Really thankz
You saved me . I am very poor at chemistry and this chapter was strange coz that was my 1st time knowing such things as i am in G-8 . I understood the concept. Thx for dat .
Glad this helped you understand 🙂
FuseSchool - Global Education 🥰🥰😘
My teacher could not explain this simply but you my friend are the best
Thank you, you made it quite easy to understand😀😀
thanks for this video ,I was not knowing about electrolysis and my exam was there . thank-you so much👍👍👍👍👍
pulling up all-nighter. THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you so much FuseSchool, i study in 8th class and this helped a lot coz it was easy to understand. :)
Glad to hear that!
What a conceptual lecture....
Keep it up
Thank you so much. Electrolysis makes more sense now than ever : )
You are very welcome 🤗
Year 10 GCSE... EASY, Thanks to you.
This is so simple and easy to understanddd
great video but you made a mistake at 2:16 when you stated that the left electrode is positively charged and the left negatively.
It was supposed to be vice versa due to the left electrode being connected to the negative terminal and the right electrode being connected to the positive terminal.
Also, I'm pretty sure electrons move the opposite way of current as current flows from positive to negative while electrons flow towards positive.
This class is so help full and this teacher is the best . From bottom of my heart I am saying thank you so much
So glad to hear that! 😃
This is just amazing my teacher couldnt explain me this but now I am clear. Plss keep making videos like this helps a lot
Thank you so much! We will 🙂
Can you please explain me why at the open circuit potential it is said that the redox reactions are in steady state? On the surface of one electrode both reaction are ocurring? Why? Nice video, thank you very much
Thankss..
Now I have a clear concept of electric current
This video is very usefull. Thank you!
This helped so much! I'm
so thankful to this
Aren't the circuit markings at 2:16 reversed? Shouldn't the small vertical dash mark be towards the negative side and not the positive side?
Yes!! I was looking for someone to comment on this
oh, so it isn't just me! I find this topic at school confusing as it is but this made me even more confused :-) Thanks for commenting. I am so relieved.
What is the answer then
well i guess it's just a mistake, we should just consider the positive terminal and the negative as positive terminal. the video is very helpful despite that.
Yea correct
Thank you fuse school for this awesome explanation
This is so help full
I love the videos but there is an error on this one. The subscript 4 is missing from the sulfate ions in the beaker
thank u....u have no idea how much contribution u r making to the students
Glad to hear that!
thank you so much , this really helped
Im watching this from uttarpradesh ,india
Im grateful to you🙏🏻♥️
Thank you so much for this beautiful video. I was getting confused a lot..Now I understood everything
So glad to hear that! Happy it helped!
I was looking for practice but it is also good.....
this guy needs more subs, he has fewer subs that the views he gets
A wonderful channel..
And the great thing is they reply... Almost within 2 days.
Thanks! 😃 Glad you like it!
My chemistry teacher is not so perfect like you sir tq.....soo much😄😊
