Question

Write the products produced when an aqueous solution of NaCl is electrolyzed

give the answer with explanation pls
Thanks and brainliest answer will be awarded....

Answer 1

Answer:

products: Cl2 and H2

Explanation:

if your solution is concentrated aqueous NaCl than you will get Cl2 and O2 because there will be race between H2 and Na to attach with cathod but because of potential deffrence H2 will attached for same reason Cl2 will attach with anode instead of O2

But if your solution is dilute your product will be H2 and O2.

THANKS

MARK ME BRAINLIEST  

if you are GUJARATI medium student follow me and ask me about NOTES of proper concepts.  i have perfect answers for questions from electrolysis concept I will surely help you

THANK YOU  

Answer 2

Answer:NaOH ,Cl2,H2

Explanation:

• when electricity is passed through a aqueous solution of NaCl ,which is also called brine,it decomposes to give NaOH  , Cl2  , H2 .

• This is also called chlor-alkali process because in the products formed chlor is for chlorine and alkali is for sodium hydroxide.
• During this electrosis,chlorine is given off at anode and hydrogen at cathode.

2Nacl + 2H2O → 2NaOH + Cl2 + H2

Hope this answer make you clear....
