Question

Electrolysis of water is a
decomposition reaction the
molar ratio of hydrogen and
oxygen gases liberated during
electrolysis of water is. *​

Answer 1

Answer:

The mole ratio of hydrogen and oxygen gases liberated during electrolysis of water is 2:1 by volume.

2H²0(1) __electric current__2H²(g) +0²(g)=hydrogen oxygen 2:1

In a decomposition reaction, a compound is broken down into its simpler forms. During electrolysis water is broken down into oxygen gas and hydrogen gas due to passing of electric current through it.
