In the electrolysis cell used for the industrial preparation of Cl2 from aqueous NaCl, a diaphragm is used to separate the products. Give an equation for the reaction that would occur in the absence of the diaphragm and describe the nature of the reaction.
At Anode :
2Cl- ----> Cl2 + 2e-
At cathode :
2H+ + 2e- ----> H2
In the absence of diaphragm
H2 + Cl2 ---> 2HCl [ Normal synthesis typre reaction ]
However there is another reactant which reacts with Cl2
NaOH + Cl2 ---> NaClO3 + NaCl
It is a disproportination reaction where Cl undergos oxidation and reduction .

(a) In the electrolysis of aqueous NaCl, how many liters of Cl2(g) (at STP) are generated by a current of 80.1 A for a period of 64.6 min? The unbalanced chemical reaction representing this electrolysis is shown below. NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) → C12(9) + H2(g) + NaOH(aq) liters of Cl2(g) is generated by this electrolysis. (b) How many moles of NaOH(aq) are formed in the solution in this process? moles of NaOH(aq) are formed.
Name: Electrochemistry and Equivalent Mass Figure 4: Electrolysis of NaCl(a) "brine" solution. 4. Refer to figure 4, an illustration of the electrolysis of a NaCl(aq) solution, called a brine". This method is used to manufacture chlorine gas and sodium hydroxide. Chlorine is widely used to purify water, as a disinfectant, and in the making of important compounds such as chloroform, a compound used in the production of Teflon. Chloride ions are oxidized in the anode half-cell and water is reduced...
3. If the amperage in your electrolysis cell were increased by a factor of 2, what effect would this have on the time required to produce the same amount of hydrogen? 4. Electrolysis of an NaCl solution with a current of 2.00 A for a period of 200 s produced 59.6 mL of Cl2 at 650 mm Hg pressure and 27 °C. Calculate the value of the Faraday's Constant from these data. 5. Why are different products obtained when molten...
An industrial process referred to as the Downs cell converts molten sodium chloride into its constituent elements through electrolysis. The cell consists of a mixture (40%) of NaCl in CaCl2 (60%) at 600°C. Calcium ions do not participate in the reaction. The graphite anode is encircled by a steel cathode. Sodium floats over the denser electrolyte and is conveyed to a reservoir while chlorine gas escapes through a vertical pipe.[10]a. Identify the oxidizing and the reducing agent (1)b. Draw a...
Does a reaction occur when aqueous solutions of iron(III) chloride and sodium phosphate are combined? yes no If a reaction does occur, write the net ionic equation. Use the solubility rules provided in the OWL Preparation Page to determine the solubility of compounds. Use the pull-down boxes to specify states such as (aq) or (). If a box is not needed leave it blank. In the laboratory you are given the task of separating Ca and Pb+ ions in aqueous...
