Cations migrate towards it .

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Cations**: - Cations are positively charged ions. They are formed when an atom loses one or more electrons. 2. **Identifying Electrodes**: - In electrolysis, there are two electrodes: the cathode and the anode. - The **cathode** is the electrode where reduction occurs and is negatively charged. - The **anode** is the electrode where oxidation occurs and is positively charged. 3. **Movement of Cations**: - Since cations are positively charged, they are attracted to the negatively charged electrode. - Therefore, cations migrate towards the cathode. 4. **Conclusion**: - The statement "Cations migrate towards it" refers to the cathode, as cations are attracted to the negatively charged electrode. ### Final Answer: Cations migrate towards the cathode. ---
