Question

when dilute sodium chloride is electrolyzed using graphite electrodes,the cation discharged at cathode most readily : Na+,oh-,h+,cl-.chose the correct answer​

Answer 1

Explanation:

When dilute sodium chloride is electrolysed,

At cathode:

2H++2e−→H2

At anode:

2H2O→O2+4H++4e−

please mark my answer as brainliest

Answer 2

Answer:

H+

Explanation:

NaCl<=>Na+ + Cl-

H2O<=>H+ + OH-

Na+ should have been discharged but H+ gains electrons more easily than Na+. So, H+ gets discharged at cathode most readily.
