Detailed Solution

I. AgNO31+K1IAgI+KNO3

Being in equal stoichiometric ratio, Agl is precipitated. It carries no charge and, hence no migration

II. AgNO31+KI2AgI+KNO3

KI is in excess hence Agl adsorbs common ion of KI (ie. I-

AgI+KI[AgI]IK+

             Fixed layer Mobile layer

Fixed layer carries negative charge and moves to anode plate.

III. AgNO2 +KI1AgI+KNO3

Agl is precipitated and AgNO3 being in excess, Ag+ is adsorbed on AgI.

AgI+AgNO3[AgI]Ag+    :   NO3                       Fixed layer     Mobile layer

Fixed layer carries positive charge and migrates to cathode (-ve) plate.
