6 0

Answer:

At the cathode during the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of magnesium iodide, MgI2 , 2I−(aq) is produced

Explanation:

At cathode, reduction reaction takes place.

The dissociation of MgI2 in aqueous solution is Mg2+(aq) and 2I−(aq)

Here, the Iodine reduces to 2I−(aq) from state of 0 (MgI2) to state of -1 (2I−(aq))

Hence, at the cathode during the electrolysis of an aqueous solution of magnesium iodide, MgI2 , 2I−(aq) is produced
