Silver metal is extracted from Ag_(2) S by cyanide process. The one is concentrated through froth floation process. The concentrated ore is the leached and solution is r ed with reducing agents to get spongy silver which then purified by fusion with an oxidant followed by electrolysis. Which of the following statements about electrolytic refining of silver is not true

Answer»

Anode consists of impure silver
cathode consists of PURE silver
Electrolytic solution consists of `AgNO_(3) and HNO_(3)`
Elecipitated solution consists of `AgNO_(3) and HCl`

Solution :Pure Ag is obtained by the electrolysis of `AgNO_(3)` SOL containing 10% `HNO_(3)` and using the impure silver as anode and pure silver plate as cathode.
