__________________________________________

Electroplating is a general name for processes that create a metal coating on a solid substrate through the reduction of cations of that metal by means of a direct electric current.

use of the electrolytic cells is the electroplating of silver, gold, etc.  Thus, anode bar gradually dissolved to replenish the silver ion in the solution. The result is silver metal has transferred from anode to cathode, in the case the spoon. The process continues till the desired thickness is built on the spoon.
