Electroplating is known as electrodeposition because the process involves depositing a thin layer of metal onto the surface of a work piece, which is referred to as the substrate. An electric current is used to cause the desired reaction.

Here's a simplified explanation of how electroplating works: Let's suppose that a layer of gold is to be electrodeposited onto metal jewelry to improve the appearance of the piece. The plating metal, or coating, (gold) is connected to the anode (positively charged electrode) of the electrical circuit, while the jewelry piece is placed at the cathode (negatively charged electrode). Both are immersed in a specially developed electrolytic solution (bath).
