Lead bromide is …. So must Be….
Insoluble
Molten
2 half equations of electrolysis of lead bromide
Pb2+ + 2e- -> pb
2br- -> br2 + 2e-
Cryolite is added to aluminium to
Lower the melting point
Products of electrolysis of aluminium
Liquid aluminium
Oxygen gas
Electrodes used in aluminium electrolysis?
Why must the be replaced
Carbon electrodes
React with oxygen and make carbon dioxide
Brine contains what ions
Na+
Cl-
H+
OH-
In electrolysis of brine water is formed at the positive electrode
Chlorine
In electrolysis what us firmed at negative ion and why
Hydrogen
Sodium is more reactive than hydrogen
Products of electrolysis of brine (3)
Hydrogen
Chlorine
Sodium hydroxide solution
