THE ELECTRON IS SURE TO DEFLECTED TOWARDS THE WEST AS THE MAGNETIC FIELD IT ENCOUTERS RUNS FROM NORTH POLE TO SOUTH POLE AND IT IS DIRECTED TOWARDS EAST. IF IT IS A POSITRON THEN IT MAY GO TOWARDS THE EAST OR WEST DEPENDING ON ITS STATE

Through the F = q (v*B) the electron will deflect in south direction but as the electron is negative particle it will deflect towards north.
