Question

Describe an experiment to show the process of electroplating.Also explain why we find a coating of copper on the negative electrode.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The metal to be used for coating is chosen as the anode and the object to be electroplated is chosen as the cathode. The electrolyte is a salt of the anode metal which gets dissociated into its respective ions. ... The current in the solution is due to the flow of these ions.

Answer 2

Dip the copper strip and object to b electroplated in the beaker containing copper sulphate solution . Leave the set up for half an hour . U will c a deposit of reddish broun coating on the object . When electricity is passed through the solution , copper ions move towards the cathode and get reduced to copper metal .
