(b) Given: ECu2+/Cu+0.34 VE^\circ_{\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}/\mathrm{Cu}} +0.34\ \mathrm{V}
  E(12Cl2/Cl)=+1.36 V\; E^\circ_{\left(\frac{1}{2}\mathrm{Cl}_2/\mathrm{Cl}^-\right)} = +1.36\ \mathrm{V}
  EH+/H2(g)Pt=0.00 V, E(12O2/H2O)=+1.23 V\; E^\circ_{\mathrm{H}^+/\mathrm{H}_2(\mathrm{g})'} \mathrm{Pt} = 0.00\ \mathrm{V}, \ E^\circ_{\left(\frac{1}{2}\mathrm{O}_2/\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{O}\right)} = +1.23\ \mathrm{V}
At cathode:
  Cu(aq)2++2eCu(s); E=0.34\; \mathrm{Cu}_{(\mathrm{aq})}^{2+} + 2e^- \rightarrow \mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{s}) ;\ E^\circ = 0.34
  H(aq)++e12H2(g); E=0.000 V\; \mathrm{H}_{(\mathrm{aq})}^{+} + e^- \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{H}_2(\mathrm{g}) ;\ E^\circ = 0.000\ \mathrm{V}
The reaction with a higher value of EE^\circ takes place at the cathode, so deposition of copper will take place at the cathode.
At anode: The oxidation reactions are possible at the anode.
 Cl(aq)12Cl2(g)+e; E=1.36 V\ \mathrm{Cl}_{(\mathrm{aq})}^{-} \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\mathrm{Cl}_2(\mathrm{g}) + e^- ;\ E^\circ = 1.36\ \mathrm{V}
2H2O(l)O2(g)+4H+(aq)+4e;2\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l}) \rightarrow \mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{g}) + 4\mathrm{H}^{+}(\mathrm{aq}) + 4e^- ; E=+1.23 VE^\circ = +1.23\ \mathrm{V}
At the anode the reaction with a lower value of EE^\circ is preferred. But due to the over potential of oxygen, Cl\mathrm{Cl}^{-}gets oxidised at anode to produce Cl2\mathrm{Cl}_2 gas.

  =1.560.09=1.4715\; = 1.56 - 0.09 = 1.4715
(b) Υ\Upsilon is a weak electrolyte as nn dilution complete dissociation of weak electrolyte takes place and thus a sharp increase in molar conductivity while in strong electrolyte it has already dissociated completely. So on dilution molar conductivity does not rises much.
