Explain the electrolytic refining of copper. |

Answer» Cathode: A thin plate of pure copper metal. Anode: A block of impure copper metal. Electrolyte: Copper sulphate solution + dilute H2SO4 When an electric current is passed through the electrolytic solution, pure copper gets deposited at the cathode and the impurities are settled at the bottom of the anode as anode mud. |
