Forms: 1800s– electrolyse, 1800s– electrolyze (now chiefly U.S.).

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: electro- comb. form, analyse v.

Etymology: < electro- comb. form + -lyse (in analyse v.: see -lyse comb. form). Compare electrolyte n., electrolysis n., electrolize v.Compare:1834 M. Faraday Let. 24 Apr. (1993) II. 176 I wanted some new names to express my facts in Electrical science..& applied to a friend Dr Nicholl who has given me some that I intend to adopt for instance a body decomposable by the passage of the Electric current, I call an ‘electrolyte’ and instead of saying that water is electro chemically decomposed I say it is ‘electrolyzed’.

1. transitive. Chemistry. To subject (a compound, solution, etc.) to electrolysis (electrolysis n. 1); to cause to decompose by passage of an electric current.
