When an aqueous solution of `CaCl_(2)` is electrolyzed using inert electrods, which of the following is `(` are `)` true ?

Options

A. Calcium deposites on cathode.
B. Calcium deposits an anode
C. Chloride is liberated on anode
D. Calcium hydroxide precipitates near cathode on prolonged hydrolysis

Answer

c,d

Explanation

`Cathode : [{:((X)Ca^(2+),+,2e^(-),rarr,Ca),(or,,,,),((sqrt())2H_(2)O,+,2e^(-), rarr,H_(2)O+2overset(o+)(O)H):}`
`Anode : [{:((X)4overset(o+)(O)H,rarr,O_(2)+2H_(2)O,+,4e^(-)),(or,,,,),((sqrt())2Cl^(c-),rarr,Cl_(2), +,2e^(-)):}`
