Explanation:
In electrolysis, a solution called the electrolyte is decomposed by the passage of direct current through it.
The points through which current enters and leaves the electrolyte are called electrodes. In electrolysis, oxidation occurs at the anode and reduction occurs at the cathode.
In the electrolysis of water; at the anode oxygen is produced as follows;
4OH^-(aq) -----> 2H2O(l) + O2(g) + 4e
