Remember the phrase 'Red Cat' for reduction.
What does electrolysis break down?
Focus on what electrolysis specifically does.
True or False: The cathode is the positive electrode.
Think about the definitions of anodes and cathodes.
If a current of 5 A flows for 10 minutes through an electrolyte, calculate the mass of copper deposited (Z = 0.000329 g/C).
Make sure to convert time into seconds before using the formula.
Discuss how the choice of electrolyte affects mass deposition when various equivalent weights are involved, providing an example.
Refer back to Faraday’s Second Law for understanding.
