Question

in the electrolysis of water.
Q1. why is the volume of gas callected at one eleectrode double that of the outher .
Q2. how will you test the evolved gases.

Answer 1

4H + O2 = 2H2O Since atoms in hydrogen are souble rhan that of oxygen therefore volume of gas collected in one electrode is double than that in the other       it is the ans of 1


by bringing a burning splinter at the mouth of releasing gas if it extiguishes with a pop sound then it is confirmed as H2 gas ans 2

Answer 2

HEY USER,
___________________________________

In the electrolysis of water,

1⃣Why is the volume of gas collected at one electrode double that of other?

▶Because out of the two electrodes there is an anode and a cathode.

2⃣How will you test the evolved gases?

▶We can test the evolved gases by bringing a burning splinter near the mouth of the beaker, if it produces a popping sound, hydrogen gas is evolved.
