What happens when electric current is passed through potassium chloride |
|
Answer» Answer: A current will electrolyze molten KCL, liberating liquid potassium (unless the SALT’s temperature is > 1052 K, the boiling point of potassium) and gaseous chlorine. If you are referring to a WATER solution of KCl—please be specific, it’s important—you get KOH solution, PLUS a mixture of O₂ and Cl₂ escaping the solution at the anode, plus hydrogen escaping at the cathode. Explanation: PLEASE MARKS BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!! |
