What happens to the concentration of `Ag^(+)` ions in a solution of `AgNO_(3)` when it is electrolysed in presence of Ag-electrodes?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The concentration of `A^(+)` remains constant. Although `Ag^(+)` is reduced at the silver cathode to form Ag, the same amount of `Ag^(+)` is produced in the solution through oxidation of Ag at the Ag - anode.
