Question
Electrons are getting added to an element Y:
which electrode will Y migrate to during the process of electrolysis?
Solution
The addition of electrons means the reduction is taking place. So, if electrons are added to Y, it will get reduced.
So, Y will acquire a negative charge on it.
Therefore, during electrolysis, Y will migrate to a positive charge or to the anode.
