When electric current is passed through a cell having an electrolytic solution, the cations move towards the cathode and anions towards the anode. If anode is pulled out from the solution
the cations and anions will move towards the cathode
the cations will continue to move towards cathode and anions will stop moving
both the cations and anions will stop moving
the cations and anions will start moving randomly.
Solution
On pulling out one of the electrodes the electric field applied to the solution disappears and hence the ions start moving randomly.
