Three products, ________,_______ and __________ produced in chlor-alkali process.

Correct option is B

The correct answer is option (B) Hydrogen, Chlorine, NaOH

The chlor-alkali process is an industrial method used to produce three main products: hydrogen (H₂), chlorine (Cl₂), and sodium hydroxide (NaOH). This process involves the electrolysis of sodium chloride (NaCl) solution (brine).

 2NaCl(aq)+2H₂O(l)→Cl₂(g)+H₂(g)+2NaOH(aq)

Information Booster :-

• Chlorine gas is produced at the anode. It is a highly reactive element used in the production of many chemicals, including disinfectants, plastics (like PVC), and solvents.
• Sodium hydroxide, also known as caustic soda, is produced in the solution. NaOH is used in industries for making soap, paper, textiles, and various other chemicals.
• Hydrogen gas is produced at the cathode. Hydrogen is also used in petroleum refining and in the food industry for hydrogenating oils.
