SUMMARY

The discussion centers on identifying the true statements regarding electrolysis. The correct answers include B, which states that electricity is conducted through the electrolyte during electrolysis, and D, which asserts that the amount of substance produced is directly proportional to the electric current and the charge on the ion. Options A and C are incorrect as they misrepresent the flow of electrons and the relationship between metallic cation discharge and metal reactivity, respectively.

PREREQUISITES
