Brine is electrolysed by using inert electrodes. The reaction at the anode is:

1. Cl-(aq) → \(\frac{1}{2}\)Cl2(g) + e-\(E_{cell}^{o}\) = 1.36 V

2. 2H2O(l) → O2(g) + 4H+ +  4 e-;  \(E_{cell}^{o}\) = 1.23 V

3. Na+(aq) + e- → Na(s); \(E_{cell}^{o}\) = 2.71 V

4. H+(aq) + e-\(\frac{1}{2}\)H2(g); \(E_{cell}^{o}\) = 0.00 V
