Electrolysis is the breaking up of a compound using electricity. In order for electrolysis to occur the compound must conduct electricity(i.e. have mobile charged particles to carry the charge! here, these are the ions produced when the sulphuric acid dissociates). To electrolyse sulphuric acid, two inert electrodes (e.g. carbon or platinum electrodes) are placed in the solution and connected to a battery cell or main supply of electricity. At the anode oxygen is formed and at the cathode hydrogen. The volume of hydrogen produced, is double the volume of oxygen. It is in fact the electrolysis of water! (ions present: (H)+, (OH)-, from the water, and (H)+, (SO4)2-, from the sulphuric acid. at the cathode, only (H)+ ions go, which turn into hydrogen! at the anode, both anions go, but only (OH)- is discharged, producing oxygen (and water), because the sulphate ion is more stable and so it's more difficult to lose its electrons)
Well you get oxygen.......It should be sumthing lyk 4OH-(aq) ---> O2(g) + 2H2O(l) + 4e-
Yes, sulfuric acid is a strong electrolyte (acid).
hydrogen produced at the cathode: 2H+(aq) + 2e- --> H2(g)
sulphate at the anode: SO4 -2 (aq) - 2e- --> SO4(l)

The electrolysis of dilute sulphuric acid gives you hydrogen gas and oxygen gas.
hydrogen, hydroxide, sulphate, hydrogen-sulphate

I don’t know
Uno palabra no. mercury is mercury dilute sulphuric acid is just that dilute sulphuric acid.
Distillation,
Not at all, but it depends on how dilute the sulphuric acid, but usually no.
This is to dilute the sulphuric acid. Sulphuric acid in high concentrations is dangerous and very corrosive.
It depends on how diluted the dilute sulphuric acid is (i.e. its concentration).

Dilute sulphuric acid is an aqueous solution, formed by adding water to sulphuric acid, resulting in a homogeneous mixture.
the answer is dilute sulphuric acid... thats what everyone says
H2SO4(dilute)
Distillation,
Dilute sulfuric acid is still acid. It is NOT basic at all.
Copper does not react with dilute Sulphuric acid.
