    In the electrolytic cell electron flows from

    A)  cathode to anode in solution

    B)  cathode to anode through external circuit

    C)  cathode to anode through internal circuit

    D)  anode to cathode through external circuit

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    In an electrolytic cell, electrons are forced through the circuit (ie, from anode to cathode) by an external source. In this cell cathode is the site of reduction (negative electrode) and anode is the site of oxidation (positive electrode).
