Sodium cannot be extracted by the electrolysis of brine solution because:

1. sodium leberated reacts with water to produce NaOH+H₂

2. sodium being more electropositive than hydrogen, H₂ is liberated at cathod and not sodium

3. electrolysis cannot take place with brine solution

4. none of the above
