During electrolysis, why is it important to have the electrodes dipped in the electrolyte?
  • 1 answers

Dr. Kamlapati Bhatt 8 years, 2 months ago

The electrodes are dipped in suitable electrolytes because 

(i)  The electrolytes yield   cations and anions which are  constantly in a state of motion  in  the electrolytic solution .  

(ii)  Ions act as carriers of  electricity .

(iii)  When an electric current is passed through the electrolyte , the positively charged ion ( cation ) move towards the negative electrode (cathode )  and  negatively charged ions  ( anions )  are directed to  positive electrode (anode ) .
