Question

In the electrolysis of aqueous sodium chloride solution which of the half cell reaction will occur at anode?
(a) $Na^+ (aq) + e^- \longrightarrow Na (s)$; $E^o_{cell}$ = -2.71V
(b) $2H_2O (l) \rightarrow O_2(g) + 4H^+ (aq) + 4e^-$; $E^o_{cell}$ = 1.23V
(c) $H^+ (aq) + e^- \longrightarrow \frac{1}{2} H_2(g)$; $E^o_{cell}$ = 0.00 V
(d) $Cl^-(aq) \longrightarrow \frac{1}{2} Cl_2 (g) + e^-$; $E^o_{cell}$ = 1.36 V
