The system in Figure 26-7 can be adapted to produce the strong acid eluent methane sulfonic acid$\left({\mathrm{CH}}_3{\mathrm{SO}}_3^{-}{H}^{+}\right)$. For this purpose, the polarity of the electrodes is reversed and the reservoir contains${\mathbf{NH}}_{\mathbf{4}}^{\mathbf{+}}{\mathbf{CH}}_{\mathbf{3}}{\mathbf{SO}}_{\mathbf{3}}^{\mathbf{-}}$. The barrier membrane and the resin bed at the bottom of the figure must both be anion-exchangers loaded with${\mathbf{CH}}_{\mathbf{3}}{\mathbf{SO}}_{\mathbf{3}}^{\mathbf{-}}$.Draw this system and write the chemistry that occurs in each part.
