Which of the following is a product formed during the electrolysis of brine? Correct Answer NaOH

Electrolysis of brine occurs at a potential about 2.2 V. During the electrolysis process, Cl2 is liberated at the anode and H2 is liberated at the cathode. NaOH is obtained in the solution as one of the by-products of the process.

Which of the following statement is correct about Faraday’s Laws of Electrolysis? First Law: The amount of chemical reaction which occurs at any electrode during electrolysis by a current is proportional to the quantity of electricity passed through the electrolyte (solution or melt). Second Law: The amounts of different substances liberated by the same quantity of electricity passing through the electrolytic solution are proportional to their chemical equivalent weights (Atomic Mass of Metal ÷ number of electrons required to reduce the cation).
