During discharge of a lead storage cell, the density of sulphuric acid in the cell-

1. Increases.                                     

2. Decreases.

3. Remains unchanged.                      

4. Initially increases but decreases subsequently.

The cell reaction for the given cell is spontaneous if-

(d) xy/z

$F_2$ gas can’t be obtained by the electrolysis of any $F^{-1}$salt because-

(1) Fluorine is the strongest reducing agent

(2) Fluorine is the strongest oxidising agent.

(3) Fluorine easily combine with atmospheric $O_2$

(4) All
