Electrolysis is a chemical process that uses an electric current to drive a non-spontaneous chemical reaction. It involves the breaking down of a compound into its constituent elements or ions using electricity.
- The process takes place in an electrolytic cell which consists of two electrodes (an anode and a cathode) immersed in an electrolytic solution.
- The anode is the positive electrode, where oxidation occurs, while the cathode is the negative electrode, where reduction occurs.
- When an electric current is passed through the electrolytic solution, positive ions migrate toward the cathode, while negative ions migrate towards the anode.
- At the cathode, reduction reactions take place, resulting in the formation of new substances or the deposition of metals.
- At the anode, oxidation reactions occur, leading to the release of the electrons and the formation of new substances or gases.
The overall result of electrolysis is the separation of the compound into its constituent elements or the transformation of one substance into another.
Electrolysis has various applications, including electroplating, metal extraction, water splitting, and electrolytic refining.
How is our Hydrogen water made?
- Electrolysis is accruing in the image above. This is located in an isolated location separate from the filtered water.
- This electrolysis process is occurring through a chemical process that uses an electric current to separate the H2O into its individual elements.
- It involved the movement of ions in an electrolytic solution, where positive hydrogen ions are attracted to the negative electrode (cathode) and negative Oxygen ions are attracted to the positive electrode (anode). This produces Hydrogen Gas
- The image below shows the hydrogen gas being infused into the filtered water which then mix and create Hydrogen Water.
