Question

An electrolysis reaction is

A)

exothermic.

B)

hydrophobic.

C)

spontaneous.

D)

non-spontaneous.

Answer 1

the electrolysis reaction is a non- spontaneous reaction

Step-by-step explanation:

Since electrons flow from it, the anode in an electrolytic cell is positive, while the cathode is negative when electrons flow into it. The device functions like a galvanic cell in that direction. In an electrolytic cell, an external voltage is applied and that is what causes a non spontaneous reaction
