    Good morning Mr Nkosi once again. Would you say that two processes/applications of electrolysis (the use of a direct electric current through a battery/cell to induce a chemical reaction with non-spontaneous chemicals) is electroplating (the coating of a substance with another to prevent it from corroding as well as other reasons) and purification (removing particular pure extracts from a lump of a substance containing impurities)? Would you say that is an accurate description of the uses of electrolysis? In other words, am I correct in saying that electroplating and purification are subsections of electrolysis?

Because I don't understand how you came to the conclusion that chloride ions undergo oxidation and copper ions undergo reduction 🥲
