Name the common elements present in the anode mud in electrolytic refining of copper.Why are they so present?

In electrolytic refining method_____ metal act as anode.

Assertion : In electrolytic refining of metal, impure metal is made cathode while a strip of pure metal is used as anode. Reason : The pure metal gets deposited at anode as anode mud.

During electrolytic refining of copper, some metals present as inpurity settle as 'anode mud'. These are -

In electrolytic refining of metals, the impure metal is made, the anode and a strip of pure metal,the cathode during the,electrolysis of an aqueons solution of a complex metal salt. This method cannot be used for refining of : silver, copper, aluminium, zinc

Assertion : Tin is refined by liquation method. Reason : Tin has low melting point as compared to impurities.

Assertion: Through out electrorefining process, the concentration of electrolyte remains constant. Reason: At a particular instant as much the metal atom from anode gets dissolved into electrolyte, the same number of metal ions get deposited at the cathode.

Assertion: Oxides of highly electro positive metals cannot be reduced by carbon. Reason: Highly electro positive metals react with carbon to form carbides.
