The passage of current through a solution of certain electrolyte results in the evolution of H_2 (g) at cathode and Cl_2 (g) at anode. The electrolytic solution is :

Assertion (A): The electrolysis of NaCl solution gives H_(2)(g) at cathode and Cl_(2)(g) at anode. Reason (R) : Cl_(2) has higher oxidation potential than H_(2)O

During the electrolysis of fused carnalite, MgCl_(2) is decomposed to liberate Mg at cathode and not KCl to liberate the K at cathode. This is because of:
