In the process for purification of copper, a thin plate of pure copper and a thick rod of impure copper are used as electrodes along with a metal salt solution as the electrolyte. Explain the process with the help of a labelled diagram
Answers
Explanation:
A thick rod of impure copper should be attached to the positive terminal of the battery.
The thin plate of copper should be attached to the negative terminal of the battery.
This is because the copper ions from the positive terminal will get attracted to the negative terminal.
The copper ions from the impure copper will get accumulated on the pure copper plate.
Answer:
copper should be attached to the negative terminal of the battery.
Copper ions are positively charged. They are attracted towards the plate which is connected to the negative terminal of the battery.
As copper ions are transferred to the thin copper plate, this thin pure copper plate must be connected to the negative terminal of the battery
