Silver Oxide Formation in Electrolysis Experiment

[clm321]

i did an experiment the other day where i split water into hydrogen and oxygen but i used a silver anode and cathode when i turned on the batterie the silver one i think the anode start to corrode( one the one that oxygen forms on) is this making silver oxide when this happens?

Have you tried to write your oxido-reduction equations ?
That would be a good start for you.

It also depends of the electrolyte you used in the solution. H2SO4 ? NaCl ? HCl ? (I hope it's not the two last).
