Is electrolysis a chemical?

In: Physics, Chemistry [Edit categories]

Answer:

No, but it is a term related to chemistry.

In chemistry and manufacturing, electrolysis is a method of using an electric current to drive an otherwise non-spontaneous chemical reaction. Electrolysis is commercially highly important as a stage in the separation ofelements from naturally-occurring sources such as ores using an electrolytic cell.
