Detailed Solution

NaBr⇌Na++Br
2H2​O+2e-→H2​+2OH
Na++OH→NaOH At cathode
Br→Br+e
Br+Br→Br2 At anode

H2 and NaOH (at the cathode) and Br2 are the end products (at anode). 

Hence the correct answer is C) H2, Br2 and NaOH 

As discharge potential of H+ ions is lower than that of Na+ ions and discharge potential of Br- ions is lower than that of OH- ions, H2 is liberated at cathode and Br2 is liberated at anode.
