Answer 1

Electrolytic refining is used to purify the impure metals byelectrolysis. ... on the other handelectrolytic reduction can be useful in metallurgy of highly reactive metal s like Na, K, Ca etc. ores are mostly fused beforeelectrolysis is done .

Answer 2

In electrolytic reduction graphite electrodes are used which are of same size. in electrolytic refining the anode is made of the impure metal which is to be purified and the cathode is made from that pure metal. initially the cathode is thick and the anode is very thin.
