- GCSE
- AQA Chemistry
- Practical assessment
- 4.4 Chemical changes
- 4.4.3 Electrolysis
- 4.4.3.4 Electrolysis of aqueous solutions
- The ions discharged when an aqueous solution is electrolysed using inert electrodes depend on the relative reactivity of the elements involved.
- At the negative electrode (cathode), hydrogen is produced if the metal is more reactive than hydrogen. At the positive electrode (anode), oxygen is produced unless the solution contains halide ions when the halogen is produced.
- Students should be able to predict the products of the electrolysis of aqueous solutions containing a single ionic compound.
