MCQ
If the current is passed into the solution of an electrolyte
- ✓Anions move towards anode, cations towards cathode
- BAnions and cations both move towards anode
- CAnions move towards cathode, cations towards anode
- DNo movement of ions takes place
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Anions move towards anode, cations towards cathode
a
When an electric current is passed through a cell having an electrolyte, the positive ions move towards the cathode and the negative ions towards the anode. If the cathode is pulled out of the solution, the circuit will not be complete and the ions will have no direction and thus they will move randomly.

For a dilute solution containing $2.5 \ g$ of a non-volatile non-electrolyte solute in $100 \ g$ of water, the elevation in boiling point at $1 \ atm$ pressure is $2^{\circ} C$. Assuming concentration of solute is much lower than the concentration of solvent, the vapour pressure ( $mm$ of $Hg$ ) of the solution is (take $K _{ b }=0.76 \ K\ kg \ mol ^{-1}$ )
