In electrolysis of dilute silver chloride what is discharged at the cathode?
I think the cathode will be coated in silver.
When molten sodium chloride is electrolysed the product at cathode is?
sodium metal is deposited at the cathode.
Electrolytes of molten sodium chloride gives this product at cathode?
Sodium is obtained at the cathode.
Electrolysis of lithium chloride at the cathode?
lithium
How is sodium metal prepared?
Using Downs process, by the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride. This is done in a Downs Cell in which the NaCl is mixed with calcium chloride to lower the melting point below 700 °C. As calcium is less electropositive than sodium, no calcium will be deposited at the cathode. This method is less expensive than the previous Castner process of electrolyzing sodium hydroxide.
What happens when electricity is passed through sodium chloride?
Sodium is deposited at the cathode and chloride gas is evolved at the anode when electricity is passed through molten sodium chloride.
What is electrolysis of aqueous sodium chloride?
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.
Does a cathode ray produce red fluorescence?
The cathode ray is just a beam of electrons. The color of the fluorescence depends on the substance in the target.
What are the products of electrolysisof molten sodium chloride?
Sodium metal at the cathode, chlorine gas at the anode
What gas is produced at the cathode of an apparatus used to electrolyse aqueous sodium chloride in the laboratory?
oxygen
Why is hydrogen collected at cathode instead of sodium during the electrolysis of sodium chloride?
When an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide is electrolyzed, hydrogen is produced at the cathode because hydrogen can be produced at a lower voltage than can sodium, and the supply of hydrogen from the water of the solution is sufficient to consume all the current supplied. When molten sodium chloride is electrolyzed, however, sodium is produced at the cathode.
What is produced at the cathode of an electrolytic cell containing 1M solution of sodium chloride?
Chlorine gas. Cl2
