2Hydrogen is produced at the cathode, oxYGEN AT THE ANODE .Mass balance to produce 5000 tonnes a year of glycolic acid, formic acid and oxalic acid are side products . The conversion of ethylene glycol is 60%. Selectivity of 85% glycolATE, 3% formATE and 2% oxalATE 10% for the sodium carbonate. How much water is needed , How much naoh is required, How much H2so4 is NEEDED TO NEUTRALIZE THE OXALATE ,FORMATE AND GLYCOLATE  to form glycolic acid , formic acid and oxalic acid respectively, And how hydrogen is produced,sodium sulphate produced FROM THE NEUTRALISATION AND HOW MUCH OXYGEN IS PRODUCED. Produce a table of mass in and mass produced /out
