The current is allowed to run through. The two dishes are combined in a beaker. When the dishes are mixed together, the water turns green.
Electrolysis of water produces equivalent amounts of acid and base.
Notice that the cathode equation should be multiplied by two in order to conserve the charge in the chemical reaction. When the dishes are mixed together, the solution is neutral again. Balancing the above equations with respect to the electrons also balances it with respect to the water's ions, so the overall sum of the two dishes is an electrically neutral and pH neutral solution.
