3
New cards

cathode

negatively charged electrode

4
New cards

anions

negative ions

5
New cards

cations

positive ions

6
New cards

electrolyte

aqueous solution containing dissolved ions so it can conduct electricity

7
New cards

electroplating

where electrolysis is used to put a layer of one metal onto the surface of another

8
New cards

conditions needed for electroplating

  1. the metal to be plated must be the negative cathode

  2. the elctrolyte must contain ions of the metal we are plating with

  3. the positive anode must be the metal we want to plate with

New cards

electrochemical series

a list of elements in order of their standard electric potentials
