Totalling the charge on the left hand side gives an overall charge of 12+ (the total of the charges on the negative dichromate ion and positive hydrogen ions), while the right hand side is 6 ...

Ionization breaks the hydrogen atom down into its positive ions (hydrogen protons) and negative ions (electrons). Both types of ions are naturally drawn to the cathode situated on the other side ...

Oxygen is always produced when hydrogen is produced from water. An ion-permeable barrier divides an alkaline water chamber ...
