Chemical Effects of Electric Current
Chemical Effects of Electric Current
Electricity can bring about chemical changes, so it is said to have chemical effects. For eg. : When electric current is passed through acidified water by using carbon electrodes, them a chemical reaction takes place to form hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. The chemical reaction can be written as :
Thisi reaction is an example of chemical reaction .The breaking up of water into hydrogen and oxygen is actually a' chemical decomposition' reaction caused by passing an electric current through acidified water.
Michael Faraday, a well- known British experimental physicist, began his experiments on the passage of electricity through liquids (electrolyte) in 1834. He observed interesting chemical changes (effects) taking place when an electric current pass through an ionic solution. The resulting effects are known as chemical effects of current. Faraday called this phenomenon, of passage of electricity through liquids, as electrolysis. This is because; it causes chemical changes within the electrolyte.
Which of the following are correct : (a) The breaking up of water into hydrogen and oxygen is actually a' chemical combination' reaction caused by passing an electric current through impure water. (b) When electric current is passed through acidified water by using carbon electrodes, than a chemical reaction takes place to form hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. (c) Michael Faraday observed interesting no change (effects) takes place when an electric current pass through an ionic solution.

Students / Parents Reviews [10]
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.

8thA marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
Archit Segal
7thMy experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.

7thBeing a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
Prisha Gupta
8thAbhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.

8thI have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
Yatharthi Sharma
10thAbhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
Manish Kumar
10thIt has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
Barkha Arora
10thIt was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
