MCQ

Which of the following statements are true?

A
During electrolysis, charge flows through electrolytic solution via electrons.
✓
The randomly moving electrons in a metal wire will start moving in a particular direction when a potential difference is applied across it.
C
A negatively charged particle has higher electric potential than a positively charged particle.
D
Charge flows only through negative charge carriers like electrons.

✓

Answer

Correct option: B.

The randomly moving electrons in a metal wire will start moving in a particular direction when a potential difference is applied across it.

The electrons in any conductor are under continuous motion but in random way. There's no net crossing of charge carriers through a given cross-section. Without potential difference, the electrons move randomly in all directions.The randomly moving electrons in a metal wire will start moving in a particular direction when a potential difference is applied across it.
