electrolyzation

• “The true composition of the salts thus formed by copper and cyanide of potassium has not yet been determined, but their relations to the battery and electrolyzation are peculiar.”

• “Though a compound formed by very powerful affinity, it yields up its elements under the influence of a very feeble electric current; and it is doubtful whether a case of electrolyzation can occur, where, being present, it is not resolved into its first principles.”

• “Yet we have it under perfect command; can evolve, direct, and employ it at pleasure; and when it has performed its full work of electrolyzation, it has only separated the elements of _a single grain of water_.”

• “This discharge, whether it be by conduction through a wire with infinite velocity (1652.), or by electrolyzation with its corresponding and exceeding slow motion (1651.), or by spark, and probably even by convection, produces a transverse magnetic action always the same in kind and direction.”

• “In concluding this division _on the intensity necessary for electrolyzation_, I cannot resist pointing out the following remarkable conclusion in relation to intensity generally.”

• “But, besides that, many which before resisted electrolyzation, now yielded up their elements.”

• “Thus nitric acid proves to be the best for this purpose; its superiority appears to depend upon its favouring the electrolyzation of the liquid in the cells of the trough upon the principles already explained”

• “Hence I conclude that the nitric acid does not undergo electrolyzation, but the water only; that the oxygen at the _anode_ is always a primary result, but that the products at the _cathode_ are often secondary, and due to the reaction of the hydrogen upon the nitric acid.”

• “The new mode of discharge which electrolyzation presents must surely be an evidence of the _action of contiguous particles_; and as this appears to depend directly upon a previous inductive state, which is the same with common induction, it greatly strengthens the argument which refers induction in all cases to an action of contiguous particles also (1295, &c.).”
