How does the electrical current in electrolysis act as a catalyst driving a reaction forwards?

The electrical current in electrolysis act as a catalyst driving a reaction in forward direction because when the electric current is allowed to the electrodes, the particles in the solution starts movement towards electrodes. Before this current, the particles inside the solution are static. If a solution contain sodium chloride so when the electrical current is passed. Sodium moves to the negative electrode while chlorine moves towards positive electrode and both the atoms are separated from each other and the reaction is completed.

explanation:

in 1783 cavendish was working with his hydrogen gas and found that when he burned it and condensed the vapor it was water. this was very significant since it disproved the greek theory of elements completely since water was not a simple substance but the product of two gases. it was lavoisier who hearing of the experiment gave cavendish's gas the name hydrogen ("water-producer") and added that hydrogen burned by combining with oxygen and that water was a hydrogen-oxygen combination.
