Why is an external emf of more than 2.2V

Question: Why is an external emf of more than 2.2V required for the extraction of Cl2 from brine? Solution: 2Cl (aq) + 2H2O(l) 2OH (aq) + H2(g) + Cl2(g) The ΔGᶱ for this reaction is +422kJmol-1. Using the formula, ΔGᶱ = -nFE E = 422 x 103/296500 we get = -2.2V For the reaction to take place the external voltage should be greater than 2.2V otherwise the reaction will not happen....

Prove that

Question: Let $f:\left[0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right] \rightarrow R: f(x)=\sin x$ and $g:\left[0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right] \rightarrow R: g(x)=\cos x$ Show that each one of $f$ and $g$ is one - one but $(f+g)$ is not one - one. Solution: $f:\left[0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right] \rightarrow R: f(x)=\sin x$ Here in this range, the lines do not cut the curve in 2 equal valued points of $y$, therefore, the function $f(x)=$ $\sin x$ is one - one. $g:\left[0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right] \rightarrow R: g(x)=\cos x$ in this rang...
