A batch of Titanium(iv) Chloride is electrolysed in a chemical plant. (a) State the type of bonding in Titanium(iv) Chloride and why it has to be molten in order to undergo electrolysis. (b) Explain why a DC current has to be be used for electrolysis.
(a) Ionic bonding. Ions are free to move/flow(b) So only one product is produced at each electrode OR So that the cathode/anode stays negative/positive which allows only the positive/negative ions to reach them.
