Which of the following processes takes place during electrolysis?
Positive ions are discharged at the anode bby gaining sufficient electrons to become neutral
Negative ions are dicharged at the anode by gaining suficient electrons to become neutral
Positive ions are discharged at the anode by losing sufficient electrons to become neutral
Negative ions are discharge at the anode by losing sufficient electrons to become neutral
Nothing happens
Explication
During electrolysis, Negative ions are discharged at the anode by losing sufficient electrons to become neutral, and positive ions are discharged at the cathode by gaining sufficient electrons to become neutral.
