HELLO ARJITA,
the answer is CHCl3 i,e chloroform
i will explain it to you
Electrolysis of NaCl solution gives NaOH and Cl2 since the system contains ethyl alcohol,NaOH, and Cl2.These reactants on reaction gives chloroform
the reaction for that is as follows
NaOH + Cl2 + C2H5OH -----------------------> CHCl3 + NaCl + H2O
this is the reaction and the percentage of sodium chloride doent matter
THANK YOU
