Observation (Anode)

Anode becomes smaller

2
New cards

Observation (Cathode)

Cathode grows

3
New cards

Explanation (Anode)

Cu - 2e- → Cu2+ |

4
New cards

What happens to the C2+ formed by the anode?

Dissolves into electrolyte and solid and pure copper is deposited onto the cathode

5
New cards

Explanation (Cathode)

Cu2+ + 2e- → Cu

6
New cards

What is this process used for?

Purify copper in industry for electronics
