Q15 / 60 · JEE Advanced 2015 (Paper 1) · Chemistry
Copper is purified by electrolytic refining of blister copper. The correct statement(s) about this process is (are)
- AImpure Cu strip is used as cathode
- Correct answerBAcidified aqueous is used as electrolyte
- Correct answerCPure Cu deposits at cathode
- Correct answerDImpurities settle as anode-mud.
Solution
Impure Cu is used as anode pure Cu deposited at cathode. Electrolyte is acidified solution of impurities settle as anode mud.
Hence, the correct answer is options: 'B', 'C', 'D'.
