19
Q

(2)sodium chloride solution is electrolysed.
………….. NaCl + ………….. H2
O ……………………………… + ……………………………… + ………………………………

A

2NaCl + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2

+ Cl2

Q

(6) Use these results of electrolysis to compare the volumes of hydrogen and oxygen
formed and to show the effect of changing the time and the current on the
volumes of these gases.

A

Comparing volumes of hydrogen and oxygen
• (in each experiment) volume of hydrogen is twice volume of
oxygen
• because water molecules contain twice as many hydrogen
atoms as oxygen atoms / is H2O
• overall 2H2O → 2H2 + O2
Relating volumes of gases to current and time
• (from experiments 1 and 2) time doubles
• (from experiments 1 and 2) volumes of gases double
• Volumes of gases are directly proportional to the time for
electrolysis / passage of current
• (from experiments 1 and 3) as current x 1.5
• (from experiments 1 and 3) volumes of gases x 1.5
• volumes of gases are directly proportional to the current
