Question

With respect to electroplating of copper which object is used as anode

Answer 1

Metallic objects can be electroplated with other metals. The object to be plated is made the cathode and the anode is made from the plating metal. The electrolyte is a solution of one of the salts of the plating metal. During the electrolysis, the increase in mass at the cathode equals the loss in mass from the anode.
