For 10 points, name this method of splitting molecules with an electric current.
When this technique is used for purification, its residue is called mud. This process obeys the equation "small m = Q over F times big M over z". Hydrogen for gas chromatography is generated through this process. Faraday discovered two laws governing this process. While carrying out this process, Fleischmann and Pons claimed they had discovered cold fusion. (*) Alumina dissolved in cryolite undergoes this process to purify aluminum. Humphrey Davy used this process to isolate the alkali metals. This process produces oxygen and hydrogen gas when applied to water.
