Redox Reactions And Electrochemistry Ques 614
Question: When electric current is passed through a cell having an electrolytic solution, the cations move towards the cathode and anions towards the anode. If anode is pulled out from the solution
Options:
A) the cations and anions will move towards the cathode
B) the cations will continue to move towards cathode and anions will stop moving
C) both the cations and anions will stop moving
D) the cations and anions will start moving randomly.
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
[d] On pulling out one of the electrodes the electric field applied to the solution disappears and hence the ions start moving randomly.
