Bro you are the best, i would suggest a channel rename because you are basically explaining everything, you don’t want people skipping your channel because of a misleading name! Cheers!
3:05 should be “electrolytical cell” rather than “electrochemical”, but other than that this is the best explanations of electrolysis I’ve seen! Thanks!
Professor Organic Chemistry Tutor, thank you for a beautiful Introduction into Electrolysis of Water in AP/General Chemistry. The electrolysis of water results from a transfer of electrons and the release of hydrogen and oxygen as gases. This is an error free video/lecture on RUclips TV with the Organic Chemistry Tutor.
Thanks JG. This video is a great explanation to understand Electrolysis. Btw, the standard electrode potential for 4OH- >> O2 +2H2O +4e- is the positive 0.4V. The electromotive force (E0) for electrolysis is -1.23 V which is calculated by (-0.83) - (+0.4). E(Red) - E(Ox). Looks you add (-0.83)V and (-0.4)V to get -1.23V but I think (+0.4)V is correct.
In case if u r wondering about the equation at anode: OH^- = OH + electron OH^- = OH + electron OH^- = OH + electron OH^- = OH + electron There fore the overal equation at Anode is 4OH^- = 2H2O + O2 + 4electrons
@@VanisyJonathan i thjink he means whjen you add the products together from top to bottom row it forms the final equation 2H2O O2 + 4 electrons where there are exactly 4 H 4O and 4 electrons
@@isaacmolina5500well it's just the properties of the stoichiometry, you can see that in the product side of the reaction (right side) there are 2 molecules of H2O and 2 atoms of oxygen. Which means that in total there would be 4 atoms of hydrogen and 4 atoms of oxygen. Therefore, to balance the equation it needs to be the same amount on both sides. Since on the reactant side there is only a hydrogen atom and an oxygen atom we put the stoichiometric coefficient in front of it, making it 4OH
12:44 I disagree. The reaction does not occur unless the activation energy is provided. The bonds of the Hydrogen molecule, H2, and Oxygen molecule O2 must first be broken before they are free to combine. The molecules will not slowly accumulate energy until there is enough to break the bonds. Wayne Y. Adams B.S. Chemistry M.S. Physics
Cathode = Reduction both start with consonant. Anode = Oxidation, both wowels. Thats how I still remember it after recieving my diplome 19 years ago. ( I'm a chemist, but work on completely other field, nothing with electrochemistry...)
correct, numbers of H and O should be the same, as well as the charges on both side of so called " half- reactions". If you sum up anode + cathode xou get decomposition of water to H2 and 1/2 O2.
is it the current or the voltage that breaks the bonds, i was thinking maybe you could have two or more cathodes connected in a series or parallel circuit 🤔🤷♂️🙇♂️
Ok so I'm seeing the Mr.JG is only crossing out elements and electrons which are in the different sides of the arrow. So is that some kind of rule in that we can only cross out stuff is they are present in both half reactions if we need a full reaction?
the standard potential of anodic reaction is greater than cathodic rxn then it should be then reduction not oxidation like cu and zn zn have -0.76 E and cu is 0.34 E so reduction of cu occurs. then why in case of water the less E value is reduction. can u plx explain it
I can't understand the role of the electrolyte. I mean it is the water that splits into the components. Why the movement of the electrolyte "helps" electrolysis? I mean what if we haven't any electrolyte? At the cathode water molecules could still take electrons and at the anode water molecules could still give electrons.

I'm curious what material do you use for the cathode and the anode are they different other than the positive and negative?

nope, +0.4 V is not correct. I think he reversed that equation with +0.4 V to get - 0.4 V.

Nice Video. Quick correction at 2:34 - should be 2H2O + 2e- -> H2 + 2OH-
Zach Kelly where does the OH from?
I understood carefully.
Thanks.

Because at this point youve gotten me through way more than organic chem
Definitely watch playlist of oxidation and reduction including balancing to easily understand
hi! i was wondering why the reaction at the cathode is 2H2O + 4e --> H2 + 4OH
why not 2H+ + 2e --> H2?
thank you🙌
that was a thumbs up, this is awesome. i love the video and the explanation
Great video. Explained it perfectly
Am always happy to watch your vedio. Have learnt so much from you thank you so much
In case if u r wondering about the equation at anode:

Where do you get 4 OH^- from?
Yes where did you get it?😢

I don’t think you mentioned the concentration build up of heavy water at the bottom. It’s small but still worth mentioning.
This guy helped me so much.
yo shoutout to man, you make so many videos
Thank you so much for covering so many topics. It was hard to find a video specifically on the electrolysis of water.
10:44, 2H2O --> O2 + 2H2
but yes, he has corrected it.
i used to do this as a kid with jar with a nail & a carbon rod from a dead battery with salt water
Very brilliant video. Thanks.
We can’t even thank the ACTUAL NAME of the owner of this Channel! but thankyou anyway ✨ I salute you, JG(?) perhaps. i

Dods it produce pure oxygen at the anode.
Im confused by the + 4 electron
2:14
In electrolysis you will get only pure elements as the products .
you are the best of all
How is the reaction described in the video an example of an oxidation/reduction reaction?
Hi could you explain the plasma electrolysis of water as well? I could not find enough information on that. Thanks!
Good work really helpful ♥️
What is the best electrode and what to do to increase the rate of reaction
add sodium hydroxide
Nickel {catalyst}
Good explanation
Can you explain me more why oxidation pair of OH-/O2=-0.43v became oxidize and H2O/HE=-0.82 became reduced?
We need to separate hydrogen from oxygen in the air
Heatwaves are partially from vapour build up in the air
2:37 There are mistake , instead 2H2O ,there should be 4H2O. One more mistake at 10:44 instead 2H2O ,should be 2H2
He didn't just balanced it, not a mistake
So, the most easily oxidized species reacts at the cathode? That's where I'm confused
Cathode = Reduction both start with consonant. Anode = Oxidation, both wowels. Thats how I still remember it after recieving my diplome 19 years ago. ( I'm a chemist, but work on completely other field, nothing with electrochemistry...)
@@gergokovacs3332 Red cat and An ox ( the animal) Is how I remember
1:11 I have read that an acid is used in electrolysis and NaOH is a base. So will it work??
Alkaline solutions can also work as they can conduct electricity
Great stuff!
Can you kindly explain if we use NaHCO3 instead NaOH? I do want u to help. Thank you
So after electrolysis will some sodium metal be seen on the cathode?
I’m a bit confuse, hydrogen has reduction potential = 0. Should it be Hydrogen at cathode instead of H2O?
H20 has more reduction potential than H2
youre my lifesaver

How much time does it take ???
Thankyou 🥺🙏🏻
sir i think the anode should be on the other side
and the cathode on the other
or maybe its how you draw the battery
nicely done
isn't the cathode supposed to be the positive side and anode the negative?
Bro you didn't uploaded kolbe's electrolysis reaction in the channel yet....
what is this apps name that ur using to make us understand electrolysis i wana download it
tell me
i cnat quite seem to understand why is it exactly the otherway around in a electromachnetic cell ( cathode is postive anode negative)
good video but you miss to explain why eletrode wear out in this process
After Electrolysis, what happens to the water. they change the water in a particular interval.
thank you very much
Show me how to split water into H & O without using a electrolyte which contains H & O.
How can i know that a metel should be written at the cathode or anode?
since you started with NaOH doesnt that mean that reaction that you said was not likely to happen already happened?
I think he was talking about removing OH from the water
H202 is peroxide, and h20 is water right?
What happens when you run out of water? There is just NaOH left, and it starts to form elemental Na?
Yeah, that's a really good question. If all the water is lost in the processes, what happens to the sodium?
why is OH oxidizing
2H2O + 4 e- is H2+ 2OH (not 4 OH) . Am I right?
yes, except 2e not 4e on the LHS
how to increase the rate of reaction, what will make the anode dissolve quickly.
@Archana Joshi how many volts, how long will it take. it is just a small fun experiment
AT 11:15 MINUTES THAT IS O2 + 2H2 NOT O2 + 2H2O means you lost th Hydrogen Gas how come?
Lets say you wanted the to somehow use the h2 gas for something. how would you collect it?
@@timno9804 and I'd assume you filter it by putting the mixture in conditions that would cause the other components to react with something?

Why does the less reactive one get discharged on the cathode?
it’s been a year💀 but the more reactive a metal is the more it prefers to stay as an ion and not get discharged
