Forms: 1800s– electrolysis, 2000s– electrolisis (nonstandard).

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: electro- comb. form, analysis n.

Etymology: < electro- comb. form + -lysis (in analysis n.: see -lysis comb. form). Compare electrolyte n., electrolyse v.

1. Chemistry.

a. Chemical decomposition produced by the passage of an electric current through a liquid containing ions; the process of passing a current through a liquid to produce a chemical reaction at the electrodes.
