How copper is refined by electrolytic method?

Explanation

Impure copper is made as anode and thin sheet of pure copper is made as cathode. Acidified copper sulphate solution is taken as electrolyte.
On passing electric current, pure copper deposits on the cathode.
At anode: ` Cu rarr Cu^(2+) + 2e` , At cathode: `Cu^(2+) + 2e rarr Cu`
