Answer»

Oxidising agent
REDUCING agent
Either of the two
Neither (a) nor (b)

Solution :Electrolytic CELL, cathode acs as a reducing agent.
E.g., At cathode, `Na^(+)+e^(-)TONA` (reduction)
At anode: `underline("Cl^(-)toCl+e^(-)("oxidation")"")`
`Na^(+)+Cl^(-)tounderset(("Cathode"))(Na)+underset(("anode"))(Cl)`
