Multiple Choice

The figure shows the electrolysis of molten AlCl3.What reaction occurs at the cathode of this cell?  The figure shows the electrolysis of molten AlCl<sub>3</sub>.What reaction occurs at the cathode of this cell?   A) AlCl<sub>3</sub>(l)   \rightarrow AlCl<sub>2</sub>(l)  B) Cl<sup>-</sup>(l)  + e<sup>-</sup>  \rightarrow Cl<sup>2</sup><sup>-</sup><sup> </sup> C) Al<sup>3+</sup>(l)  + 3e<sup>-</sup>  \rightarrow Al(l)  D) 2Cl<sup>-</sup>(l)  + 2e<sup>-</sup>  \rightarrow Cl<sub>2</sub>(g)  E) 2Cl<sup>-</sup>(l)   \rightarrow  Cl<sub>2</sub>(g)  + 2e<sup>-</sup><sup> </sup>


A) AlCl3(l) \rightarrow AlCl2(l)
B) Cl-(l) + e- \rightarrow Cl2-
C) Al3+(l) + 3e- \rightarrow Al(l)
D) 2Cl-(l) + 2e- \rightarrow Cl2(g)
E) 2Cl-(l) \rightarrow Cl2(g) + 2e-
