Electrolysis of an aqueous solution of copper sulphate using copper electrodes gives (1) Copper at eathode and oxygen at anode. (2) Copper at anode and oxygen at cathode. (3) Copper at cathode and anodes dissolve to give copper. (4) Hydrogen at cathode and oxygen at anode.

1 Answer

Answer :

(1) Copper at eathode and oxygen at anode. Explanation: Copper is deposited at the cathode and is dissolved at the anode. Consequently the concentration of copper ions in solution remains constant. This can be used as a method of purification of copper as only pure copper is deposited at the cathode
