Pyrolysis is done by heating a sample to high temperatures. Electrolysis is done by having a sample (usually an aqueous solution, or a molten salt)
complete an electrical circuit (hence, passing electric current through it). Hydrolysis is allowing a sample to react with water.
I weep at the sight of flaming acetic anhydride.
