During extraction of metals, electrolytic refining is used to obtain pure metals. (a) Suggest a suitable electrolyte also. (c ) In this electrolytic cell, where do we get pure copper after passing electric current ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

On passing electric current, impure metal dissolves from the anode and goes into the electrolyte solution and pure metal from the electrolyte deposits on the cathode.
