THE PROCESS OF DECOMPOSITION OF CHEMICAL COMPOUND IN A SOLUTION WHEN AN ELECTRIC CURRENT PASSES THROUGH IT IS CALLED EKECTROLYSIS . ELECTROLYSIS IS USED IN REFFINING AND EXTRACTION OF METALS●●●●
The object that is to be plated is connected to the negative terminal of the power supply. A piece of silver is connected to the positive terminal. The electrolyte is a silver nitrate solution. This process can also be used to purify silver. We can take an impure block at the positive terminal and a strip of pure silver to the negative. The pure silver is deposited via electrolysis at the negative terminal leaving behind the impurities.
