What is the study of the chemical effects of electrical action?

The study of the chemical effects of electrical action is called electrochemistry. This field focuses on the relationship between chemical reactions and electricity, including redox reactions and electrolysis. It has applications in batteries, corrosion prevention, and fuel cells.


What alkaline solution is formed after the electrolysis of sodium chloride?

Sodium hydroxide, if the electrodes are inert to electro-dissolution, as are the carbon cathodes are usually used in large-scale electrolysis of this type.


Suggest why magnesium chloride can be made by mixing magnesium with hydrochloric acid but copper chloride cannot be made by mixing copper with hydrochloric acid?

Copper is an inert metal and below hydrogen in electro chemical series therefore can not displaced hydrogen from acids so copper can not be converted directly to salts by reacting with acids, however concentrated sulphuric acid reacts with copper on heating in presence of atmospheric oxygen forming the copper sulphate, chlorides and other salts are prepared from its sulphate salt.


What is the Hindi meaning of corrosion?

Corrosion is a gradual chemical or electro-chemical attack on a metal by its surrounding such that the metal is converted into an oxide,salt or other compound


What element has the lowest electronectivity?

Francuim is thought to have the lowest electro-negativity.Linus Pauling estimated that francium had the same electro-negativity as Caesium = 0.7. The electro-negativity of caesium was later revised to 7.9 but francium is so unstable and reactive that it is not possible to obtain samples of pure francium to accurately determine its electro-negativity.
