Question

Write the chemical equation involved in the precipitation of sodium hydroxide name the process

Answer 1

Electrolysis of brine solution (NaCl) gives NaOH.

Electrolysis of brine solution (NaCl) gives NaOH.At anode -

Electrolysis of brine solution (NaCl) gives NaOH.At anode -2Cl ^- -----> Cl2 + 2 electrons

Electrolysis of brine solution (NaCl) gives NaOH.At anode -2Cl ^- -----> Cl2 + 2 electronsAt cathode -

Electrolysis of brine solution (NaCl) gives NaOH.At anode -2Cl ^- -----> Cl2 + 2 electronsAt cathode -2H+ + 2 electrons ------> H2

Electrolysis of brine solution (NaCl) gives NaOH.At anode -2Cl ^- -----> Cl2 + 2 electronsAt cathode -2H+ + 2 electrons ------> H2In the solution, Na+ + OH- ------> NaOH
