What is it? Electrolysis is the decomposition of a substance using electricity. An electric current is passed through in electrolyte (a molten or dissolved ionic compound), which causes it to break down. Electrolysis Oxidation and Reduction During electrolysis, both oxidation and reduction occur. Oxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons. Positive ions (cations) will move towards the cathode (negative electrode). Here they will be reduced (gain electrons) Negative ions (anions) move towards the anode (positive electrode) and are oxidised (lose electrons) They then form uncharged substances and are discharged from the electrolyte (they come out of the molten/dissolved substance) TOP TIP: Remember OILRIG Oxidation Is Loss (of electrons) Reduction Is Gain (of electrons) TOP TIP: Remember PANIC Positive Anode Negative Is Cathode
