Explain why electrolysis of an aqueous solution of NaCl gives \( H_2 \) gas at cathode and \( Cl_2 \) gas at anode? Write the overall reaction.
(Given: \( E^\circ_{\text{Na}^+/Na} = -2.71 \, \text{V}, \, E^\circ_{\text{H}_2/\text{H}_2O} = -0.83 \, \text{V}, \, E^\circ_{\text{Cl}_2/\text{Cl}^-} = +1.36 \, \text{V} \))
