Answer:
Brine elctrolysis is where a solution of sodium chloride (common table salt) dissolved in water is broken down into chlorine gas, hydrogen gas, hydroxide ions and sodium ions by passing and elctrical curren through the solution. The chlorine gas will liberate at the cathode and hydogen at the anode, and the two ions produced will combine to form a solution of sodium hydroxide, a very strong alkali which has many applications. (The NaOH solution will be, when the reaction is complete, in place of the NaCl solution). Hope this is useful!!
