Metallic anodes smore reactive than plat...

Metallic anodes smore reactive than platinum tend to pass into the solution instead of `O_(2)` being produced.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
T
Metals are more reactive than `H_(2)O` Hence oxidation of metals takes lace to give ions `(` which passes into the solution `)` than the oxidation of `H_(2)O`.
