A bulb lights up while molten lead bromide is electrolysed. Why does the bulb go out when the lead bromide solidifies?
The ions can no longer move through the solid
The electrons can no longer move through the solid
The ions lose their charges as the solid forms
The bonds in the solid have all been broken
