What are the products at the cathode and anode when an aqueous solution of KI is electrolyzed between platinum electrodes?

E^o_red of K I K+ = -2.93 V

Ered of Pt I H2O, H2, OH- = -0.83 V

Ered of Pt I I2, I- = 0.53 V

Ered of Pt I O2, H2O, H+ = 1.23 V

a. K(s) at the cathode, O2(g) at the anode

b. K(s) at the cathode , I2(s) at the anode

c. H2(g) at the cathode, O2(g) at the anode

d. H2(g) at the cathode, I2(s) at the anode
