AFMC AFMC Solved Paper-2000

  • question_answer
    During electrolysis the species migrate to cathode are :

    A) cation                                   

    B) anion

    C) both (a) and (b)               

    D) none of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    During electrolysis oppositely charged species move towards electrodes i.e., cation (+vely charged ion) move towards cathode (-vely charged electrode) and vice versa. NOTE: Oxidation takes place at anode (loss of \[{{\text{e}}^{-}}\]) Reduction take place at cathode (gain of \[{{\text{e}}^{-}}\])
