During the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride, the time required to produce 0.10 mol of chlorine gas using a current of 3 amperes is

330 minutes
55 minutes
110 minutes
220 minutes
Explanation:

At Cathode:

NACl electrolysis cathode reaction

At anode:

NACl electrolysis anode reaction

$\dfrac{W}{E} = \dfrac{It}{96500}$

0.1 × 2 = $\dfrac{3 × t(sec)}{96500}$

t = 6433 sec

t = 107.2 min

∼ 110 min.
