positive ions
Negative ions go to a positive electrode.
The metal plates out on the negative electrode, which provides the electrons needed to neutralize its positive ions.

Ionic substances conduct electricity through the migration of ions. Positive ions move toward the negative electrode (cathode), and negative ions move toward the positive electrode (anode). In a solid there is no migration (movement) because the ions are locked together in a crystal lattice, the solid form.
Aluminium is formed at the cathode because the Al ions (Al3+) within the electrolyte are attracted to form aluminium metal by gaining 3 electrons. The metal is molten due to the high temperature of the cells. Hope this helps
because chloride ions being negatively charged have got a tendency to get attracted to positive ions( follows from coloumbs law) and since positive electrode contains positive ions so chloride free ions in solution gets attracted to the positive electrode....

if it is dipped the zinc electrode looses the electron in to the solution as zinc ions and it attains negative charge on th electrode and it absorb the positive ions in the solution.so w can see a bundle of positive ions just around the zinc electrode
The electrode that removes ions from solution
Positive ions go to the negative electrode.

A positive ion is called a cation. It forms when an atom loses one or more electrons, resulting in a net positive charge. Cations are attracted to anions, which are negative ions, due to their opposite charges.
The cause is the electrostatic attraction.
These are positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions).
In case of passing electric current through a liquid or gas we need ions as the carriers of electric charges. Say for example in case of copper sulphate solution, we have Cu++ ions and SO4-- ions. As we connect a battery to the plates or electrodes immersed in the solution, the electrode connected to the positive polarity of battery is known as Anode. Now SO4-- ions by negative in nature would be moving towards the Anode. Hence negative ions are named as ANIONS. Where as the electrode connected to the negative polarity of the battery will be named as Cathode. Hence the Cu++ ions would be attracted towards Cathode and so Cu++ ions are named as CATIONS. So in a nut shell, ANIONS are negative ions and CATIONS are positive ions.
The electrolysis ionize the particles/ molecules present in the particles and charged the positive and negative ions. Positive ions collected on negative electrode and Negative ions collected on positive electrodes.
