Figure 1. Petri Dish Electrolysis. p a Pre-Lab Questions 1. Complete the following table summarizing the general properties of the electrodes in an electrolytic cell. Electrode Oxidation or Reduction Sign of Electrode Anode Cathode 2. Sodium metal is produced commercially by the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride. The by-product of the reaction is chiorine gas. (a) Write the oxidation and reduction half-reactions for the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride. (b) Identify the substance that is oxidized and the substance that is reduced. (c) Write the balanced chemical equation for the overall reaction. 3. Sodium metal is easily oxidized-it is a very reactive metal. Sodium reacts spontaneously with water at room temperature to give sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Would you expect to observe sodium metal in the electrolysis of aqueous sodium chloride? Explain.
