The products that obtained by the electrolysis of salt water are "chlorine salt" which is the main product, "sodium hydroxide" (NaOH) and "Hydrogen ()".
Explanation:
- The electrolysis of salt water is to produce the hydrogen at the cathode.
- Oxygen is ideally formed at the anode because which is a harmless gas.
- Although, chlorine gas also formed at anode which is a toxic one.
- The electrolysis happen leads to force of attraction, as the force of attraction of salt is high,
- Salt water is helpful because it has "better force of attraction" and then it gets attacked by the "gravitational force of attraction" from atmosphere and back to the atmosphere as rain.
- The oxygen is attracted in least manner and has "less force of attraction".
