[Vo]: Which is electrolyzed in PF, palladium or heavy water? (was Re: [Vo]: Re: Your ad hominem attack)
No decomposition is not the only definition. Electroplating is also considered electrolysis. If by this you mean that electroplating http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroplating is not electrical decomposition you are quite mistaken Ed, it is. What decomposes in electroplating is --as in any electrolysis-- the electrolyte, a metal salt solution whose metal component plates out on the cathode, by the dissolved positive metal ion acquiring one or more electrons from the power supply's negative pole to become solid metal. In one technique (but not all) electroplating also involves dissolution of the _anode_ as a way to replenish the ions in the bath. However in PF experiments such as yours palladium is the _cathode_ so this phenomenon doesn't occur, therefore it cannot be invoked to say that palladium is being electrolyzed. Controversy solved?

It would only be correct if it was decomposed into constituting elements, which even if it was (it isn't because it can't as I said) would be of course a minor effect compared to the main decomposition that takes place, that of D2O, which would make your description about as accurate as Dissolution of a mug to describe an experiment where you dissolve sugar in your coffee.

So, this complex process you just described, whereby Li plates on and reacts with the Pd to form soluble alloys, these dissolve and the Pd is replated back on the cathode surface --- which indeed involves decomposition and electric current flowing through a solution, just like electrolysis! --- is in fact what your paper talks about principally, and that's why it says electrolysis of palladium, right? Oh dear, how unfortunate, you forgot to mention this process in the paper! I hope Profs. Fleischman and Pons did mention it in their paper, since you write in page 1 that in 1989 they too electrolyzed a platinum anode, a palladium cathode, using a LiOD + D2O electrolyte. Note they seem to have beaten you, they even managed to electrolyze platinum, will you please explain the detailed process too?

Ed - I've been following this saga only sketchily, and it only reinforces my observation that there's an enormous number of people who regard this world as a gigantic court of law; that everything (every word) has to be legally justifiable. What a bore The world is NOT like that, and I for one don't tolerate being cross-examined on every word or statement I make. And neither should you. If people don't have (or are *above* having) an intuitive grasp of an idea or statement, that's just too bad.
