Learn the basics about electrolysis. Electrolysis is electrical current flow through a liquid which causes chemical changes. The liquid can be a molten ionic compound or aqueous solution. The liquid will contain free-flowing positive ions and negative ions. The positive ions are called cations, a
Aluminium is the most abundant metal on Earth. However, it is expensive because a lot of electricity is used to extract it. VISIT us at www.fuseschool.org, where all of our videos are carefully organised into topics and specific orders, and to see what else we have on offer. Comment, like and shar
Exploring melting under microgravity conditions – improving industrial casting processes One of the focal points of research onboard the International Space Station (ISS) is the investigation of crystal growth in metal alloys. Under microgravity conditions, differences in density in the molten mate

Learn how features derived from Cassini radar data indicate a possible ice volcano on Saturn's moon Titan in this video from NASA. Learn about Sotra Facula, a possible cryovolcano (ice volcano) on Saturn's moon Titan. Volcanologist Rosaly Lopes explains how topographic maps derived from Cassini rada
This is part 2 for our videos on giant chemical structures. Part 1 is here: https://bit.ly/336zmMx Giant ionic structures also have exceptionally high melting points. This is because the electrostatic interactions between the ions are very strong. Mg2+ and O2- ions have double the number of cha
