Which pair of electrolytes could not be distinguished by the products of electrolysis, using inert electrodes

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Electrolysis of both KCl and NaCl liberates `H_(2)` at the cathode and `Cl_(2)` at the anode. But the Resulting solutions will be different.

An aqueous solution of CuSO_(4) is electrolyszed using Pt electrodes in one case and Cu electrodes in another case. What are the products of electrolysis in both the cases ?

Electrode potential data are used for predicting fessibility of any process. These are particularly useful in deciding products obtained on electrolysis and also on suitability of any substance for quantitative estimation. Some of the electrode potentials are given below: An aqueous solution is taken comprising of Fe^(+3),Mn^(+2),Fe^(+2),C_(2)O_(4)^(2-) and Cl^(-) all at standard conditions. The solution is subjected to electrolysis using inert electrodes ensuring that pH of the solution remains as 7. Identify the option which is correct regarding products obtained [assume that except [H^(+)] all other species involved are present at standard conditions].
