During electrolysis of fused NaCl in order to obtain Na, ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ is liberated at the cathode of Pt while with the cathode of Hg, it forms sodium amalgam. This is because

(I)  Pt is inert

(2)  Hg is a liquid

(3)  More voltage is required to produce ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ at Hg than at Pt

(4)  ${\mathrm{H}}^{\oplus }$ ions are formed rapidly when Hg is used as a cathode
