Write equations for the reactions taking place at the two electrodes (mentioning clearly the name of the electrode) during the electrolysis of:
Acidified copper sulphate solution with copper electrodes.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`CuSO_4 harr Cu^(2+) + SO_4^(-)`
`:. CuSO_4` undergoes dissociation reaction.
Cathode: `Cu^(2+) + 2e^(-) rarr Cu` (Readuction)
Anode: `Cu^(-2) -2e^(-) rarr Cu^(2+)` (Oxidation)
