  1. Question 1

    Acids, Bases and Salts. Asked 2 times: 2023*, 2024 (* = numbers or wording changed that year)

    34 (b)
    Name and state in brief the process which is used to prepare sodium hydroxide from sodium chloride. In this process along with the main product two gases ‘X’ and ‘Y’ are also given off at the two electrodes. Name ‘X’ and ‘Y’ specifying the name of their respective electrode at which each gas is obtained. One of these gases when reacts with dry calcium hydroxide produces a compound ‘Z’ which is widely used in water treatment plants and textile industries. Name Z and write chemical equation for the reaction involved in its formation.
