Answer: 1
1-20On the industrial scale molten Sodium metal is obtained by the electrolysis of fused NaCl is the Downs cell. This electrolytic cell is a circular furnace. In the center there is a large block of graphite, which acts as an anode cathode round it is made of ironreaction at cathode
Working of Downs cell:
The fused NaCl produces Na+ and Cl-inon , which migrate to their respective electrode on the passage of electric current. Nollen Nacl ionizes as
2NaCl = 2 Na + +2Cl-
2Na+ + 2e- _____> 2Na
Overall galvanic reaction
2NaCl ______> Cl2 +2Na
