1 Today we are going to be introducing the basic ideals of electrolysis, just what you need to get a basic ideal. in the future topic will go further in that. Essential ideas Conduction of electricity through metals and carbon The flow of electricity through a metal or carbon is due to the movement of electrons. The metal or carbon isn t chemically changed in the process. Electrolysis Electrolysis is defined as a chemical change produced when electricity is passed through a substance which is either molten or in solution. Electrolytes An electrolyte is a compound which undergoes electrolysis. The reason that an electrolyte has to be molten or in solution is that the current is carried through the electrolyte by the movement of ions not electrons. In a solid, those ions can t move. It also follows, of course, that an electrolyte must contain ions. Electrodes, Cations and anions The electrodes are the pieces of carbon or metal which are placed in the electrolyte and connected to a dc power source. The positive electrode is called the anode; the negative one the cathode. Remember PANC positive anode, negative cathode. Because positive ions are attracted to the negative cathode, they are known as cations. Negative ions, attracted to the positive anode, are known as anions. Discharge of ions at the electrodes What gets discharged at the electrodes during electrolysis depends on whether the electrolyte is molten or in solution. It has to be one or the other because otherwise the ions can t move. Electrolysis can t Page 1/5

2 happen unless the ions can move to the electrodes. We are starting with the simpler case where the electrolyte is molten. The electrolysis of molten electrolytes Experimental One of the common compounds to electrolyse molten is lead(ii) bromide partly because the products are easily visible, and partly because its melting point isn t too high. An experimental set-up would look something like this: Nothing happens at all until the lead(ii) bromide is molten. When it melts, the bulb lights up showing a current flow, and bubbles of brown gas are seen at the positive electrode (the anode). Nothing seems to happen at the cathode, but afterwards, when the apparatus is taken to pieces, a bead of silvery metal is found underneath the cathode. What is happening? Nothing happens until the compound is molten because the ions aren t free to move. Page 2/5

3 At the cathode Positive ions move to the cathode (the negative electrode). When they get there, they pick up electrons from the electrode to form neutral atoms. For example, electrolysing molten lead(ii) bromide gives lead at the cathode: Or if you electrolysed molten sodium chloride: Notice that the gain of electrons at the cathode means that reduction is taking place here. Remember OIL RIG Reduction Is Gain of electrons. At the anode Negative ions are attracted to the positive anode, and are discharged by losing electrons. For example, in the two cases above, you would get chlorine or bromine formed. You could also show these equations as: The loss of electrons means that oxidation is taking place at the anode. Remember OIL RIG Oxidation Is Loss of electrons. Page 3/5

4 Why does a current flow in the external circuit? It is essential to realise that in the melt, ions are moving, whereas in the circuit electrons are moving. The simplest way of thinking of the power source is as an electron pump. For every Pb 2+ ion discharged, two electrons are removed from the cathode. For every two Br ions discharged, two electrons are deposited on the anode. You can think of the power source as pumping the electrons along the wires to fill up the gaps appearing in the cathode, and at the same time pumping away the new electrons being released at the anode. Question Time 1) What is meant by the following terms? 1. a) Electrolysis 2. b) Electrolyte 3. c) Anode 4. d) Cation 2) In the electrolysis of molten sodium iodide using carbon electrodes, nothing happens until the sodium iodide is molten, but then you see a purple gas being given off from one electrode and orange flashes at the other one, and a current flows around the external circuit. 1. a) What is the purple gas produced at one of the electrodes? 2. b) Which electrode is it produced at? 3. c) Write an equation for its formation. 4. d) Is this oxidation or reduction? 5. e) Explain the orange flashes at the other electrode. 6. f) Write the equation for the initial reaction happening at this electrode. 7. g) Why does no current flow while the sodium iodide is solid. 8. h) Explain why the discharge of ions allows current to flow around the external circuit.
