  • Electrolysis is the process of decomposition of electrolytes by the passage of electric current.
  • In metal chlorides, metals are cations (positively charged) and chlorides are anions (negatively charged). 
  • During the electrolysis, non-metals or chlorides (anions) being negatively charged are attracted toward the anode (positive electrode) and obtained at the anode in form of gas.
