When the electric current is passed through a cell having an electrolyte, the positive ions move towards cathode and negative ions toqards the anode. If the cathode is pulled out of the solution .

A

The positive and negative ion will move towards anode

B

The positive and negative ion will move towards anode, the the negative ions will stop moving

C

the negative ions will continut to move towarsa anode while positive ions will stop moving

D

the positive and negative ions will start moving randomly

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In the absence of electric feld the ions in the solution move radomly due to thermal energy.
