Single-choice question: When electrolyzing saltwater to produce caustic soda, Cl2 is produced at the anode instead of O2. The reason is ( ). A. The theoretical potential of O2 > the theoretical potential of Cl2 B. The theoretical potential of O2, the overpotential of Cl2 D. The overpotential of O2, the overpotential of Cl2
When electrolyzing saltwater to produce caustic soda, Cl2 is generated at the anode rather than O2, and the reason for this is (C. The overpotential for O2 is greater than that for Cl2).
The overpotential for C.O2 > the overpotential for Cl2
