In electrolysis of NaCl when Pt electode...

In electrolysis of NaCl when Pt electode is taken then `H_2` is liberated at cathode while with Hg cathode, it forms sodium amalgam. This is because

A

Hg is more inert than Pt

B

More voltage is required to reduce `H^(+)` at Hg than at Pt

C

Na is dissolved in Hg while it does not dissolve in Pt

D

Conc. of `H^(+)` ions is larger when Pt electrode is taken

When Brine solution is subjected to electrolysis the gases liberated at anode and at cathode are

Electrolysis involves electronation and de-electronation at the respective electodes. Anode electrolytic cell is the electode at which de-electronation takes place whereas at cathod electronation is noticed. If two or more ions of same charge are to be electonated or deelectronate the ion having lasser discharge potential is discharged. Discharge potential of anion refers for EP_(OP)^(@) of E_("RP")^(@) as the case may be. The products formed at either electode is given in terms Faraday's laws of electrolusis i.e. w=(Eit)/(96500) During electrolysis of CuSO_(4(aq)) , the pH of solution becomes

Electrolysis is the process in which electrical energy is converted to chemical energy. In electrolyte 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 proportionation to the amount of charge passed through it. The mass of substance liberated at electrode is calculate using the following realation : m=(itE)/(96500) Here, E represent 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 on gram equivalent of the substance. The passage of current liberates H_2 at cathode and Cl_2 at anode. The solution is

The platinum electrodes were immersed in a solution of cupric sulphate (CuSO_4) and electric current is passed through the solution. After sometimes, it was observed that the colour of copper sulphate disappeared with evolution of a gas at the electrode. The colourless solution contains.

All titration which involves the direct titration of Iodine with a reducing agent are grouped under lodimetry. Iodimetry is employed to determine the strength of reducing agent such as sodium thio sulphate I_(2) + 2Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3) rarr 2I^(-)+S_(4)O_(6)^(-) If iodine is liberated as a result of chemical reaction involving oxidation of an idodide ion by a strong oxidizing agent in neutral or acidic medium the liberated iodine is then titrated with reducing agent. This titration is called lodometry. Todometry is used to estimate the strength of oxidizing agent. For example the estimation of Cu^(++) with thiosulphate. Cu^(+ +) +I^(-) Cu_(2)I_(2)+I_(2) , I_(2) +S_(2)O_(3)^(-) rarrS_(4)O_(6)^(-) +I^(-) Starch used as indicator near the end point which form blue colour complex with I_(3)^(-) . The blue colour disappears when 10 mL of H_2O_2 solution on treatment with KI and titration of liberated I_2 required 10 mL of 1 N hypo . Thus H_2O_2 is :
