Question

During the electrolysis of a saturated solution of sodium chloride where is chlorine formed hydrogen formed sodium hydroxide formed

Answer 1

 Electrolysis of aqueousNaCl results in hydrogen gas andchloride gas. At anode, chloride is oxidized to chlorine. The ion-selective membrane allows the counterion which is to flow across freely, but prevents anions such as hydroxide andchloride from diffusing across.
