Silver metal is extracted by cyanide process from silver glance (Ag_(2)S). The ore is concentrated through forth floatation process. The concentrated ore is then leached and solution is treated with reducing agent to get spongy silver which is then purified by fusion with an oxidsing agent followed by electrolysis. Which of the following statement about electrolytic refining of silver is not true

1.	Silver metal is extracted by cyanide process from silver glance (Ag_(2)S). The ore is concentrated through forth floatation process. The concentrated ore is then leached and solution is treated with reducing agent to get spongy silver which is then purified by fusion with an oxidsing agent followed by electrolysis. Which of the following statement about electrolytic refining of silver is not true
Answer» Anode consists of impure silver Cathode of impure silver Electrolytic SOLUTION consists of `AgNO_(3)` and nitric acid Electrolytic consists of `AgNO_(3)` and hydrochloric acid Solution : Electrolyticsolution cannot consist of `AgNO_(3) and HCl` because Ag will GET precipitarted as AGCL in the solution.
