I did not know it either but inert means it cannot react, so my best guess is that and inert electrode is one that will not react with the ons in the electrolyte. So it wont react with oxygen and form CO2. We would not have to replace it.

What is a sentence using the word inert?
The inert gas had no effect on the experiment. The bomb was inert and failed to explode.
What can xenon do?
Xenon is a noble gas, and provides an inert atmosphere for most chemical reactions--it does form fluorides and oxides, however, the latter of which are sensitive explosives and can oxidize metals to their highest states. Xenon is also a medical asphixiant.
Elements on the right side are?
The elements on the right side of the periodic table are called the P block elements. They are non metals. The right most elements are called noble gasses(inert gasses). These do not react with other elements.
What is an inert medium?

Non-metals
Is gold an inert metal?
Inert is a state of doing little to nothing. In relation to metals, an inert metal is a metal that is not reactive. Gold can react with other things so it is not inert.
What are the chemical groups on the periodic table?
Alkali metals, Alkali Earth metals, Rare Earth metals, Transition metals, Non metals, Halogens, Inert gases

What are theSections of the periodic table?
There are eight classifications of elements in the periodic table. They are: Non-metals, transition metals, rare earth metals, halogens, alkali metals, alkali earth metals, other metals and inert elements.
Why are gold and platinum found as pure metals?
Gold and platinum are inert and they are not affected by most of the chemicals and so they are found as pure metals
Why argon is used in welding?
Argon is an inert gas. At the high temperatures which are reached during welding the metals involved can get highly reactive. An inert environment prevents chemical reactions.
Why are noble metals inert?
They are resistant towards corrosion and oxidation at normal conditions this thing.
Do all metals react with hydrochloric acid to give hydrogen gas?
No, inert metals as Gold, Platinum and Palladium do not react with hydrochloric acid.
