Electrolysis of Aqueous Solutions: Theory and Applications

This is a video discussing the theory and practical applications of electrolysis of aqueous solutions. The speaker explains what electrolysis is and how it involves the splitting of compounds using electricity. They then dive into the specifics of electrolysis of aqueous solutions, including the use of anode and cathode and the process of discharging ions to form uncharged elements. The video also covers the different rules for electrolysis at the cathode and anode, depending on the ions present, and how they can be discharged to form metal or gas. The lecture is intended as the first of two videos covering the topic of electrolysis.
