This sample produces Hydrogen gas, because the H+ (conteined in the water) has a reduction potential higher than the Li+ from the salt. Therefore the hydrogen cation will reduce instead of the lithium one and form the gas.

b) Aqueous AgBr

This sample produces Solid Ag, because the Ag+ has a reduction potential higher than the H+ from the water. Therefore the silver cation will reduce instead of the hydrogen one and form the solid.

c) Molten LiBr

In a molten binary salt like LiBr there is only one cation present in the cathod. In this case the Li+, so it will reduce and form solid Li.

c) Molten AgBr

The same as the item above: there is only one cation present in the cathod. In this case the Ag+, so it will reduce and form solid Ag.
