A graphite anode is preferred to other inert electrodes during electrolysis of fused lead bromide.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Graphite anode is preferred to platinum in the electrolysis of molten lead bromide, because graphite remains unaffected by the reactive bromine vapours which are released at the anode.
