Q8 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (25 Jul Shift 2) · Chemistry
High purity dihydrogen is obtained by
- Areaction of zinc with aqueous alkali.
- Correct answerBelectrolysis of warm aqueous barium hydroxide solution between nickel electrodes.
- Celectrolysis of acidified water using platinum electrodes.
- Dreaction of zinc with dilute acid.
Solution
Dihydrogen of high purity is obtained by electrolysing warm aqueous barium hydroxide solution between nickel electrodes. In electrolysis, the reaction occurs at the anode and cathode :-
At anode :-
At cathode :-
Hence, the high purity dihydrogen is obtained by electrolysing warm aqueous barium hydroxide.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
