Question

Which statements are true about electrolysis? Check all that apply. Electrolysis requires an acid be present. Electrolysis is described by two half-reactions. Electrolysis is not an industrial process. Electrolysis results in commercially valuable products. Electrolysis involves the transfer of electrons. Reduction results in the loss of electrons. Oxidation results in the loss of electrons.

Answer 1

Answer:

See below  

Step-by-step explanation:

True

• Electrolysis is described by two half-reactions.  
• Electrolysis results in commercially valuable products.  
• Electrolysis involves the transfer of electrons.  

False

• Electrolysis requires an acid to be present. For example, you can electrolyze molten NaCl.
• Electrolysis is not an industrial process. For example, many metals are purified by electrolysis.
• Reduction results in the loss of electrons. The Gain of Electrons is Reduction.
• Oxidation results in the loss of electrons. The Loss of Electrons is Oxidation.

Answer 2

true

Electrolysis is described by two half-reactions.  

Electrolysis results in commercially valuable products.  

Electrolysis involves the transfer of electrons.  

Oxidation results in the loss of electrons.
