In the chlor-alkali process
(1) Sodium hydroxide is produced near the cathode
(2) Sodium hydroxide is produced near the anode
(3) Sodium hydroxide is produced exactly between
the cathode and anode
(4) Sodium hydroxide is not produced

Option 1 is correct as Sodium Hydroxide is formed near the cathode because
During chlor-alkali process (aq. NaCl), NaCl and water are present as electrolyte.
Na+ (from NaCl) and H+(from water) tends to move to negative terminal (i.e cathode) while Cl- (from NaCl) and OH-(from water) tends to move to positive terminal(i.e anode).
Hope it helps!!
