Electrolysis cell for molten sodium chloride: A commercial electrolysis cell for the production of metallic sodium and chlorine gas from molten NaCl. Liquid sodium floats to the top of the melt above the cathode and is drained off into a storage tank. Chlorine gas bubbles out of the melt above the anode.

Answer:
MgCl2 has to be heated until molten in order for it to conduct electricity. When molten you have Mg2+ and 2Cl- ions. Then electrolysis separates the elements. The Mg2+ is reduced at the cathode (-) and the Cl- is oxidized at the anode (+).
