Hey mate, here is your answer... I hope it will help you....
Electroplating is a process that uses an electric current to reduce dissolved metal cations so that they form a thin coherent metal coating on an electrode. ... In one technique, the anode is made of the metal to be plated on the part.
ELECTROPLATING
The process of depositing a metal on another article with the help of electric current is known as electroplating.
USES OF ELECTROPLATING
- Electroplating is used to deposit gold,silver and other expensive metals on less expensive metals to make cheap jewellery.
- Zinc is eletroplated on parts of bridges to avoid corrosion.
- Tin is eletroplated on cans used for storing food items to avoid corrosion and spoiling of food.
- Chromium is eletroplated on cycles handlebars and other parts to avoid corrosion and give a shiny appearance.
EXPLANATION OF ELECTROPLATING WITH THE HELP OF COMMON EXAMPLE
This can be done with the help of an example of copper.
A simple circuit can be made using a battery, two wires both having one end in copper sulphate liquid, attach copper plate one on both ends.
The copper present in copper sulphate will deposit on the copper plate attached on negative terminal. The copper on the positive terminal will attach to the sulphate, this will lead to the proper composition of copper sulphate. This will lead to thickening of negative terminal's copper plate and the positive terminal's copper plate will get thin.
