Answers 1) What would the products be when aluminium chloride (which contains Al3+ and Cl- ions) is melted and electrolysed ? Write half equations to show what goes on at each electrode. Aluminium would be produced at the cathode: Al3+ + 3e-  Al Chlorine would be produced at the anode: 2Cl-  Cl2 + 2e- 2) Explain the following observations: When lead(II) bromide is heated until it melts and an electric current passed through, a silvery coloured liquid is found under the negative electrode (cathode) and a brown gas appears at the positive electrode (anode). Use half equations to support your answer. Molten lead forms under the cathode: Pb2+ + 2e-  Pb Bromine is given off at the anode: 2Br-  Br2 + 2e- 3) What would you observe during electrolysis of (i) silver nitrate solution; (ii) magnesium iodide solution? Give relevant half equations. Silver would be deposited on the cathode: Oxygen would be given off at the anode: Ag+ + e-  Ag 4OH-  O2 + 2H2O + 2e- Hydrogen would be produced at the cathode: Iodine would be formed at the anode: 2H+ + 2e-  H2 2I-  I2 + 2e-
