at d anode oxidation occur.... Oxidation involves d loss of electron..... Negative ions r deposited at d anode i.e. Dy lose sufficient electrons to become neutral... d answer is correct

the anode is the positive electrode in which anions are discharged and they move to the cathode where they lose electronand become neutral.the ans is c

What happens to negative ions during electrolysis?
During electrolysis, at the cathode (negative electrode), positively charged ions gain electrons and so the reactions are reductions. At the anode (positive electrode), negatively charged ions lose electrons and so the reactions are oxidations.
So MYSCHOOL ARE CORRECT 💯
option D

cl ion for has gained one electron in the solution to become(negatively )charged and achieve octet configuration, so it gets attracted to the positive electrodes and pays that dept then finds another debt paying bro to make Cl2 (discharged (

negative ions gain electrons to become neutral so the ans is C

wrong!!! d anode is a negatively charged electrode on which positive ion is deposited by loosing electron to become neutral ...

negative ions cant be discharge by losing electrons coz dey are already electron deficient

Hmmmmh...I don't think they are right on this! Negative ions discharged at the anode is outrightly wrong.
