A brief analysis of the physics and effects of electrolytic gas evolution is presented. Aspects considered include bubble nucleation, growth and detachment; enhancement of mass and heat transfer; and decrease of apparent electrical conductivity of bubble containing electrolytes. This analysis is mainly oriented to hydrogen-/oxygen-evolving electrodes.
