Explain chlor-Alkali process ? Draw theflow chart of chlor-Alkali process products uses?
Answers
Answer:
It is a type of decomposition reaction. When electricity is passed through an aqueous solution of sodium chloride (called brine), it decomposes to form sodium hydroxide. The process is called the chlor-alkali process because of the products formed- chlor for chlorine and alkali for sodium hydroxide. Following is the chemical equation for the process 2NaCl (aq) + 2H2O (l) ? 2NaOH (aq) + Cl2 (g) + H2 (g) Chlorine gas is liberated at the anode while hydrogen gas is liberated at the cathode.

Answer:
Electrolysis of Brine
When electricity is passed through aqueous solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) also known as brine solution, it decomposes to form sodium hydroxide (NaOH). This process is called cholr-alkali process because of products formed chlor from chlorine and alkali from sodium hydroxide. Chlorine is given at anode and hydrogen at cathode, sodium hydroxide near cathode.
