Electrolysis

Electrolysis, process by which electric current is passed through a substance to effect a


chemical change. ... The process is carried out in an electrolytic cell, an apparatus
consisting of positive and negative electrodes held apart and dipped into a solution
containing positively and negatively charged ions.

Q.3 Positive electrode of electrolytic cell is called
1. cathode
2. anode
3. electrons
4. protons
Ans: Anode
Q.4 when an electric current is passed through a cut potato for a considerable time a coloured
spot is formed around one of the electrodes.
Which effect of electric current is involved in this case?
1. heating effect
2. magnetic effect

4. all of the above
Ans: chemical effect
Q.5 electroplating is an example of ------------effect of electricity.
Ans: Chemical effect
Q.6 Does distilled water conduct electricity ?What will happen if we add sugar in distilled water
?
Ans: No distilled water does not conduct electricity if we add sugar in distilled water then also it
will not conduct electricity because sugar does not dissociate into ions.
