Draw the diagram of the apparatus used in the refining of copper sulphate solution. Label the anode mud.

The diagram of the apparatus used in the refining of copper sulphate solution is as follows: The anode mud is tagged in this diagram. Anode mud is a type of deposit which is insoluble. A deposit of anode mud is found in commercial electrolysis as a residue in anode.

Draw the diagram of the apparatus used in the refining of copper sulphate solution. Label the cathode.

The diagram of the apparatus used in the refining of copper sulphate solution is as follows: The cathode is tagged in this diagram. On passing electricity, Impure copper from the anode dissolves and goes into CuSO 4 solution and pure copper from the copper sulphate solution deposits on the cathode. Thus, pure copper metal is produced at the cathode.

What are amphoteric oxides?

The metal oxides which react with both acids and bases to produce salt and water are known as amphoteric oxides. Amphoteric compounds are compounds that react with both acid and bases.

Draw the diagram of an electrolytic cell used in the purification of copper and label the electrode having impure copper.

The above diagram shows the electrolytic cell used in the purification of copper. The anode is made of impure copper metal rod and the cathode is a pure copper metal rod. The electrolyte used in the reaction is acidified copper sulphate solution. On passing an electric current through the electrolyte, the metal ions from the anode migrate into the electrolyte and an equivalent amount of metal ion migrates from the electrolyte and deposits on the cathode. The soluble impurities go into the solution. The insoluble impurities settle down at the bottom as mud which is known as anode mud.
