Electrolusis involves electronation and de-electronation at the redpective electrodes. Anode of electrolytic cell is the electrode at which de-electronation takes place whereas at cathode electronation is noticed. If two or more ions of same charge are to be electronated or de-electronated, the ion having lesser discharge potential is dischargeed. Discharge potential of an ion refers for E_(OP)^(@) or E_(RP)^(@) as the case may be. The products formed at either electrode is given in terms of Faraday's laws of electrolysis i.e., w = (E.i.t)/(96500) E. 5 litre solution of 0.4 M Ni(NO_(3))_(2) is electrolysed using Pt electrodes with 2.4125 ampere current for 10 hour:
