1 Each square on the map is 2 cm by 2 cm (4 cm 2) and represents 1 km 2 on the surface of the earth. 2  For 1:25,000 maps, the grid lines are 4 cm apart. 3  Each square on the map is 4 cm by 4 cm (16 cm 2) and represents 1 km 2 on the surface of the earth.
+ 2 e â + 2 H + â. In the last example, H + ions (hydrogen ions) also take part in the reaction, and are provided by an acid in the solution, or by the solvent itself (water, methanol etc.). Electrolysis reactions involving H + ions are fairly common in acidic solutions.
Electrolysis - Competing half-reactions in solution electrolysis. 1  Using a cell containing inert platinum electrodes, electrolysis of aqueous solutions of some salts leads to reduction of the cations (e.g., metal deposition with, e.g., zinc salts) and oxidation of the anions (e.g. evolution of bromine with bromides).
