Explanation:

Basic membrane cell used in the electrolysis of brine. At the anode (A), chloride (Cl−) is oxidized to chlorine. The ion-selective membrane (B) allows the counterion Na+ to freely flow across, but prevents anions such as hydroxide (OH−) and chloride from diffusing across...

Brine is a solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) and water (H2O). The process of electrolysis involves using an electric current to bring about a chemical change and make new chemicals. ... Two other useful chemicals are obtained during the process, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen (H2)....

Answer:

  • Brine is simply a solution containing a mixture of NaCl (Common Salt) and H_{2}_O( Water).
  • It is on a large scale used for the manufacturing of Cl (Chlorine) Common Salt.
  • Two other important products obtained in this reaction are
  1. Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH)
  2. Hydrogen Gas (H_{2})    

NaCl+H_{2} O----> NaOH+Cl_{2} +H_{2}              

Hope it helps!!
