Answer:

A is sodium

B is chlorine

C is salt or NaCl

D is hydrogen gas

E is chlorine gas

Explanation:

sodium is highly reactive metal so it's stored in kerosene.

chlorine has 17 atomic no

they combine to form NaCl sodium chloride.

When an electric current is passed through concentrated sodium chloride solution, hydrogen gas forms at the negative electrode , chlorine gas forms at the positive electrode, and a solution of sodium hydroxide also forms.
