Which consequence results when molten sodium chloride reaches platinum electrodes?

💡 Explanation

Chlorine gas forms; molten NaCl undergoes electrolysis due to applied voltage causing *ionic conduction*. Therefore, chloride ions oxidize at the anode to form chlorine gas, rather than sodium deposition, which occurs at the cathode under normal electrolytic conditions.
