उत्तर

\[\ce{NaCl (aq) -> Na^{+} (aq) + Cl^{-} (aq)}\]

Cathode: \[\ce{H2O(l) + e^{-} -> 1/2 H2(g) + OH^{-} (aq)}\]

Anode: \[\ce{Cl^{-} (aq) -> 1/2 Cl2(g) + e^{-}}\]

Overall reaction: \[\ce{NaCl(aq) + H2O(l) -> NaOH(aq) + H2(g) + Cl2(g)}\] 

\[\ce{NaOH}\] is a strong base, they turn the brine solution basic and pH will increase.
