A) ionisation
B) reduction
C) oxidation
D) hydrolysis
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
The chemical reaction taking place at the anode of a cell is oxidation. Oxidation is the process in which electrons are given out by a atom, ion or molecule. At anode \[2C{{l}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}C{{l}_{2}}+2{{e}^{-}}(oxidation)\] The chemical reaction taking place at the cathode of a cell is reduction (in which electrons are gained by an atom, ion or molecule). At cathode\[N{{a}^{+}}+{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}Na(reduction)\]You need to login to perform this action.
