Which of the following half reactions is MOST LIKELY TO OCCUR at the cathode of an electrolytic cell containing aqueous NaCl? You may use the table of reduction potentials. Group of answer choices
a) Cl2(g) + 2 e− → 2 Cl−(aq)
b) Na+(aq) + e− → Na(s)
c) Cl−(aq) + e− → Cl2−(aq)
d) 2 H2O(l) + 2 e− → H2(g) + 2 OH−(aq)
e) Na(s) + e− → Na−(aq)
Can you explain which reaction I should look for (s, aq, l, g- I don't know which one to choose since cell needs to contain aqueous NaCl)in the table and why you chose the answer
Thank you sm!
