    The chemical reaction taking place at he anode of a cell is

    A)  ionisation          

    B)  reduction

    C)  oxidation           

    D)  hydrolysis

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    The chemical reaction taking place at the  anode of a cell is oxidation. Oxidation is the process in which electrons are given out by a atom, ion or molecule. At anode   \[2C{{l}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}C{{l}_{2}}+2{{e}^{-}}(oxidation)\]                  The chemical reaction taking place at the  cathode of a cell is reduction (in which  electrons are gained by an atom, ion or  molecule). At cathode\[N{{a}^{+}}+{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}Na(reduction)\]
