To solve the question, we need to understand the process that occurs when electric current passes through a copper sulfate solution. Here’s the step-by-step solution: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Electrolysis**: When electric current is passed through a solution, a process called electrolysis occurs. In this process, the compound in the solution breaks down into its constituent ions. 2. **Identifying the Solution**: In this case, the solution is copper sulfate (CuSO4). When copper sulfate is dissolved in water, it dissociates into copper ions (Cu²⁺) and sulfate ions (SO4²⁻). ...
