When an ionic substance is melted or dissolved in water, the ions are free to move about within the liquid or solution
electrolysis = passing an electric current through ionic substances that are molten or in solution to break them down into elements
During electrolysis, atoms become ions
The positively charged ions move to the negative electrode(Cathode)
The negatively charged ions move to the positive electrode (Anode)
