Which of the following is the name of a process in which electrical energy causes a chemical reaction?
a. hydrolysis
c. oxidation
b. electrolysis
d. electronation

b. electrolysis

Explanation:

As we know that electrolysis is the phenomenon of dissociation of ions into individual form so by transferring electric current into the solution.

Here when electric current is passed through the solution then the ions present in the solution in combined forms will start breaking into individual form.

So here in terms of energy we can say that electrical energy supplied to the solution is converting into chemical energy of the solution which is used to break the ions into individual form.

so here correct answer will be

b. electrolysis

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
