What state does a substance need to be in to carry out electrolysis?

• Solid

• Liquid

• Gas

• Any state

Why can electrolysis only be carried out if a substance is liquid?

• because the ions are fixed

• because the ions are free to move to the electrodes

• because the ions can escape into the atmosphere
