Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
In electrolysis, a solution called the electrolyte is decomposed by the passage of direct current through it.
The points through which current enters and leaves the electrolyte are called electrodes. In electrolysis, oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode.
In the electrolysis of water; at the anode oxygen is produced as follows;
4OH^-(aq) -----> 2H2O(l) + O2(g) + 4e
A - 12
The amount of protons in a specific element do not change, for if the protons change, then the element themselves change. Therefore, no matter what, if the question specifies the element (i.e. Carbon) then the amount of protons will remain the same as seen on the periodic table.
Hope this helps!

I don’t know how to explain it, but when there are 8 outermost outer nuclear electrons, it’s the most stable time, lose e- will make it unstable
Data:
z (atomic number)
p (protons)
e (electrons)
A (mass number)
<span>We know that: </span>Z = p = e
Therefore:
Z = 12
P = 12 ← protons
A chemical symbol represent the number of an element
