Answer:
1. Positively charged ions gain electrons at the cathode. These are half equations for some reactions at the cathode:
Na+ + e- → Na
Pb2+ + 2e- → Pb
2H+ + 2e- → H2
2. Negatively charged ions lose electrons at the anode. These are half equations for some reactions at the anode:
2Cl- → Cl2 + 2e-
2O2- → O2 + 4e
