During the electrolysis of the molten lithium chloride, the Lithium ions (Li⁺) at the cathode undergoes reduction, and the electron configuration of lithium becomes 1s²2s¹.
<h3>What is electrolysis?</h3>
Electrolysis can be described as the process in which the electric current is passed through the chemical compound to break them. In this process, the atoms and ions are interchanged by the addition or removal of electrons.
The ions are allowed to move freely in this process. When an ionic compound is melted or dissolved in water then ions are produced which can move freely.
During the electrolysis of molten lithium chloride, the lithium ions reach the cathode and accept the electrons while chloride ions reach at anode and loss electrons to become chlorine gas.
At anode : 2 Cl⁻ → Cl₂ + 2e⁻
At cathode: 2 Li⁺ + 2e⁻ → Li

Answer:
nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh xD
have a good day :)
Explanation:
Explanation:
96.485 columbs=1 faraday will
deposit 64/2g= 32 g cu ion
therfore it will require
96,485 ×2/32 =? coulombs or 1/16 of
Faraday= 1 / 16 mole of electrons .
I am so sorry I do not know but I need to answer a question in order to ask one I hope u pass:))
