Electrolysis is thebreaking up (-lysis)of substances usingelectric current (electro-)– hence the name. It can be done with dissolved or molten ionic solutions such as sodium chloride (NaCl) or aluminum oxide (Al2O3) to obtain the pure elements from their ions. This is very useful because...
it must be reduced through a nonspontaneous process. One common use of an electrolytic cell is the electrolysis of molten NaCl, which results in the production of sodium metal (liquid) and Cl2gas. In the diagram below,

The molten salt-based direct reduction process for reactive solid metal outperforms traditional pyrometallurgical methods in energy efficiency. However, the simplity and rapidity of this process require a deeper understanding of the interfacial morpholog
Briefly explain why different products are obtained from the electrolysis of molten NaCl and the electrolysis of a dilute aqueous solution of NaCl. What would be the difference in the products of electrolysis of NaBr(s) and NaBr(aq)?

The electrolytic production of nickel-copper alloy by electrochemical reduction of converter matte in molten salt has been investigated. The sintered solid porous pellets of Ni3S2, Cu2S and converter matte were electrolyzed at a voltage of 3.0 V in molten CaCl2-NaCl under the protection of argon ...
