    Positively charged ions are called cations as they are deposited at negatively charged pole. Negatively charged ions are called anions as these are deposited at positively charged pole. That’s why the negatively charged pole is called cathode and positively charged pole is called anode.

  2. [B] (III) and (IV)
    Simply understand that, there is a positively charged anode and a negatively charged cathode in an electrolytic cell. Positively charged ions (cations) are deposited at the negatively charged cathode. Negatively charged ions (anions) are deposited at the positively charged anode. Hence, your answer will be option [B].
