An aqueous solution of `NaCl` on electrolysis gives `H_(2)(g), Cl_(2)(g),` and `NaOH` accroding to the reaction `:`
`2Cl^(c-)(aq)+2H_(2)Orarr2overset(c-)(O)H(aq)+H_(2)(g)+Cl_(2)(g)`
A direct current of `25A` with a current efficiency of `62%` is passed through `20L` of `NaCl` solution `(20%` by weight`)`. Write down the reactions taking place at the anode and cathode. How long will it take to produce `1 kg ` of `Cl_(2)`? What will be the molarity of the solution with respect to hydroxide ion ? `(` Assume no loss due to evaporation . `)`
