This document discusses electrolysis, the process of using electricity to split up substances. It addresses the types of substances that can be electrolyzed when molten or in solution, and notes that positive ions move to one electrode while negative ions move to the other. Electrolysis involves oxidation and reduction reactions. The document also mentions that toxic, explosive gases and solutions can be produced during electrolysis of brine, and defines the symbols used in equations to represent different states of matter.
