In Activity 1.7, water is electrolysed to give H2 gas at one electrode and O2 gas at the other electrode. 2H2O(l) → 2H2(g) + O2(g) Thus two molecules of water on electrolysis give two molecules of hydrogen gas and one molecule of oxygen gas or in other words the amount of hydrogen gas collected would be double than that of oxygen gas.
