Electrolysis of sodium chloride solution with indicator
In neutral sodium chloride, base is produced at the cathode and acid at the anode.
Electrolysis of distilled water
In the absence of dissolved electrolytes, water will not conduct electricity, so no electrolysis occurs.
Electrolysis of tin(IV) chloride
Electrolysis of a tin(IV) chloride solution produces oxygen at the anode, hydrogen and tin(II) ion at the cathode.
Electrolysis of a sodium sulfate solution
An electric current is passed through a sodium sulfate solution. Gases are collected at the electrodes are tested for pH.
