Metal
A liquid or solution containing a dissolved ionic compound, which can conduct electricity
The negative electrode
The positive electrode
Produced at the cathode when a simple ionic compound is electrolysed
Produced at the anode when a simple ionic compound is electrolysed
Used as the anode in the manufacture of aluminium
When mixed with aluminium oxide, allows it to be electrolysed at a lower temperature
Determines which ions are discharged during electrolysis
Produced at the cathode if an aqueous solution contains a metal which is more reactive than hydrogen
Produced at the anode if an aqueous solution does not contain halide ions
Produced at the anode if an aqueous solution contains halide ions
Broken down in an aqueous solution to form hydrogen and hydroxide ions
