Assertion: When aqueous sodium chloride solution is electrolysed, Oxygen gas is produced at the anode.
Reason: It is due to the overpotential for oxidation of water to oxygen.
Reason: It is due to the overpotential for oxidation of water to oxygen.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Both assertion and reason are correct statements, and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
The correct answer is A (Both assertion and reason are correct statements, and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion) because the overpotential of water oxidation favors the production of hydrogen at the cathode instead of oxygen at the anode during the electrolysis of aqueous NaCl.
