The decomposition products may be molecules with a smaller number of atoms, free radicals or atoms, or positive and negative ions. If the products are free radicals or atoms, the process is called photodissociation. If the products are positive and negative ions, the process is known as photoionization. photolysisenUKphotolysis[fo-tol´ĭ-sis]pho·tol·y·sis(fō-tol'i-sis),pho·tol·y·sis(fō-tol'i-sis)photolysischemical decomposition using light energy (‘splitting by light’). In 1933, Cornelius van Niel proposed that the initial step in PHOTOSYNTHESIS was the photolysis of water, leading to the release of oxygen ions (forming oxygen gas) and hydrogen ions which were involved in the reduction of NADP during the LIGHT REACTIONS. Recently it has become more common to explain the breakdown of water as a ‘separation of charge’, a fast spontaneous ionic reaction with water splitting into hydrogen (H+) and hydroxl (OH-) ions. The end result is the same as photolysis, but light is not thought to be involved in the process. |
