  • Electrolysis
    • When an ionic substance is melted/dissolved in water...
      • ...the ions are free to move about within the liquid or solution
    • Passing  an electric current through ionic substances that are molten, e.g. led bromide, or in solution, breaks them down into elements
      • =Electrolysis
        • Substance broken down=electrolyte
