New cards
What would happen in the electrolysis of a solution, if the metal’s more reactive than hydrogen?
If the metal is more reactive than hydrogen then hydrogen gas is formed at the cathode.
2
New cards
What’s attracted to the cathode and what does it do?
The H⁺ ions from the ionisation of water are attracted to the cathode and react with it.
3
New cards
What do the H⁺ ions gain and form?
The H⁺ ions gain electrons from the cathode and form hydrogen gas.
4
New cards
Write the symbol equation for hydrogen formed at the cathode:
2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂
5
New cards
What will remain in solution?
