Which one is wrong if electrolysis of `CH_(3)COONa(aq)` is made using `Pt` electrodes ?

A

`pH` of solution increases.

B

Molar ratio of gases at anode and cathode is `3:1`

C

`[CH_(3)COO^(c-)]` in solution decreases.

D

The molar ration of gases at anode and cathode is `2:1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

Anode`:2CH_(3)COO^(c-)rarr C_(2)H_(6)+2CH_(2)+2e^(-)`
Cathode `:2H^(o+)+2e^(-) rarr H_(2)`
`(CO_(2):H_(2)=2:1)`
