Question

. In an electrolytic cell metal passes in to ion A. Charge B. lon C. Cathode D. Anode​

Answer 1

Answer:

The key process of electrolysis is the interchange of atoms and ions by the removal or addition of electrons to the external circuit. Oxidation of ions or neutral molecules occurs at the anode, and reduction of ions or neutral molecules occurs at the cathode.

option D

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is (C) Cathode.

Explanation:

• Cathode is an electrode at which reduction takes place, that is, there is gaining of electrons by the cations.
• At the anode, oxidation takes place, that is, there is losing of electrons by the anions.
• During electrolysis, positive metal ions gain electrons from the cathode, becoming neutral. They are reduced and are deposited at the cathode.
• While at the anode, the negatively charged ions lose their electrons and get deposited.

Conclusion:

In an electrolytic cell, the metal is deposited at the cathode.
