A is the answer .they only did not write the ionization correctly .anions ionise on the right side of equations

No answer. At the cathode reduction takes place and at the anode oxidation..it shud b 40H-2H20+202+2E

the answer is A bcuz the said a very dilute solution which means effect of concentration won't make cl to be discharged

the answer is B because cl- is discharge at the anode not oH-. reference essential chemistry p151.
