The cathodic reaction in electrolysis of dilute H_(2)SO_(4) with platinum electrode is:

Electrolysis is the process in which electrical energy is converted to chemical energy. In electrolytic cell, oxidation takes place at anode and reduction at cathode. Electrode process depends on the electrode taken for electrolysis. Amount of substance liberated at an electrode is directly propertional to the amount of charge passed through it. The mass of substance liberated at electrode is calculated using the following relation : m= ("ItE")/(96500) Here, E represents the equivalent mass and 96500 C is called the Faraday constant. Faraday (96500 C) is the charge of 1 mole electron, i.e., 6.023 xx 10^(23) electrons, it is used to liberate one gram equivalent of the substance. On electrolysis of dilute sulphuric acid using platinum electrodes, the product obtained at the anode will be :
