How NaCl is formed by electrolysis ?explain with the help of diagram? |
| Answer» Electrolysis of Salt Water. In chemistry,\xa0electrolysis\xa0is a method of separating bonded elements and compounds by passing an electric current through them. An ionic compound, in this case\xa0salt, is dissolved with an appropriate solvent, such as\xa0water, so that its ions are available in the liquid.\xa0The electrolysis of brine is a large-scale process used to manufacture\xa0chlorine\xa0from salt. Two other useful chemicals are obtained during the process,\xa0sodium hydroxide\xa0(NaOH) and\xa0hydrogen\xa0(H2). | |
