Uses electric current to separate ionic compound into ions
Splitting using electricity
So ions are free to move, not fixed in crystal lattice
Ionic compound (molten/solution) with free-moving ions
Positive electrode
Negative electrode
Positive ions
Negative ions
Reduction (ions gain electrons)
Oxidation (ions lose electrons)
M++e−→MM^+ + e^- \rightarrow MM++e−→M
X−→X+e−X^- \rightarrow X + e^-X−→X+e−
Solid sediments or gases
Don't react with electrolyte; reactions only at surface
