Sodium metal can be obtained by electrolysis from molten mixture of sodium chloride and calcium chloride in Down's cell. The metal can not be obtained by electrolysis from aqueous solution, because hydrogen will evolve instead.

Why Na ion and OH- ion not combine in electrolysis of aqueous NaCl?
They actually do combine during electrolysis of aqueous Sodium Chloride
Name of process of electrolysis of aqueous sodium chloride?
the answer is chlor alkali process..... It is an industrial process.....
Why sodium chloride is not in the aqueous state?
The reduction potential of sodium is under the same potential of water.
What is the electrolysis of sodium chloride?
1. The products of the molten sodium chloride electrolysis are sodium and chlorine. 2. The products of the water solution of sodium chloride electrolysis are sodium hydroxide and hydrogen.
What is aqueous sodium chloride?
Aqueous sodium chloride is also known as salty water.
How is the electrolysis different when the sodium chloride is dissolved in water?
If you are asking for the difference between the electrolysis of concentrated NaCl and aqueous NaCl, the water molecules in aqueous NaCl undergoes the Redox reactions rather than the sodium and chloride ions because the electric potential is higher. In concentrated NaCl, the chlorine atoms are oxidised instead.
Why electrolysis of concentrated aqueous sodium chloride liberate chlorine rather than oxygen at the anode?
Bacon and eggs and orange juice!!
What is produced when sodium chloride is electrolysed?
Electrolysis of molten sodium chloride: the products are sodium and chlorine. Electrolysis of sodium chloride solution: the products are hydrogen and chlorine.
Why electrolysis does not happen in solid sodium chloride?
when an aqueous solution is used, hydrogen gas is evolved at cathode, instead of depositing sodium metal.
How can sodium be reduced from sodium chloride?
Sodium can be obtained from sodium chloride by the electrolysis of molten NaCl.
Aqueous lead chloride reacts with aqueous sodium sulfate to produce a lead sulfate precipitate and aqueous sodium chloride?
yes
Is sodium chloride solution aqueous or non aqeous?
Sodium chloride may form aqueous solutions.
