    Which one of the following reactions occur at the cathode?

    A)  \[2O{{H}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}{{H}_{2}}O+1/2{{O}_{2}}+2{{e}^{-}}\]

    B)  \[Ag\xrightarrow{{}}A{{g}^{+}}+{{e}^{-}}\]

    C)  \[F{{e}^{2+}}\xrightarrow{{}}F{{e}^{3+}}+{{e}^{-}}\]

    D)  \[C{{u}^{2+}}+2{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}Cu\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     At anode, oxidation takes place while at cathode reduction (ie, gain of electron) takes place. Thus,\[C{{u}^{2+}}+2{{e}^{-}}\xrightarrow{{}}Cu\]occurs at cathode.
