The assumptions of electrolysis include that the electrolyte is sufficiently conductive to allow ion movement, that the electrodes are inert and do not participate in the chemical reactions, and that the system is maintained at a constant temperature and pressure. Additionally, it is assumed that the reaction proceeds to completion without side reactions and that Faraday's laws of electrolysis apply, meaning the amount of substance produced at each electrode is proportional to the electric charge passed through the electrolyte.
