O₂(g)+ 4 H⁺(aq)+ 4 E^- → 2 H₂O(l)E° = +1

Multiple Choice

O₂(g) + 4 H⁺(aq) + 4 e^- → 2 H₂O(l) E° = +1.23 V Pb²⁺(aq) + 2 e^- → Pb(s) E° = -0.13 V
2 H₂O(l) + 2 e^- → H₂(g) + 2 OH^-(aq) E° = -0.83 V
Based on the half-reactions above,electrolysis of an aqueous solution of Pb(NO₃) ₂ is expected to produce.

A) Pb at the cathode and H₂ at the anode.
B) Pb at the cathode and O₂ at the anode.
C) H₂ at the cathode and Pb at the anode.
D) O₂ at the cathode and Pb at the anode.
