Oxygen will because the sulfate ions are stable so they will stay in the solution.

What type of electrodes are used in potentiometric titration?

Potentiometric titration is a method to detect potential difference between the indicator electrode and reference electrode and thus determine concentration of chemical component, which reacts with reagent added to a solution potentially in equilibrium at the beginning.The popularly used reference electrode is either silver-silver chloride or mercury sulfate electrode, and the indicator electrode is generally made of glass electrode, platinum electrode and silver electrode or ion selective electrode.


Does sulfate have a positive charge?

No, sulfate has a negative charge of 2. The formula for sulfate is SO4 2- where "-2" is the charge.

Why does the color of copper sulfate solution changes during electrolysis?

The color fades as there is a discharge of copper two ions to form copper atoms


How do you get copper from copper sulfate solution?

Copper can be obtained from copper sulfate solution by electroplating it onto an electrode or by adding a metal higher in the electromotive series than copper, such as iron, to the solution. The more active metal will dissolve by displacing copper in metallic form from the copper sulfate.


Will copper make a battery explode?

I am no sure but it think it will because I tried to connect both positive and negative using copper and luckily I took the battery off it was hot in just a few seconds so just dont even try to do it.


What are inert and active electrodes?

Inert electrodes simply serve as electrical conductors and are unchanged by the cell processes. Active electrodes change during the cell reactions. An example of inert electrodes is platinum in the electrolysis of water. The platinum remains unchanged and the water is split into hydrogen and oxygen. An example of active electrodes is in the electrolysis of copper sulfate solution with copper electrodes. The anode copper is converted into copper ions in the solution, and metallic copper builds up on the cathode. The term active electrode is also used in eeg measurement, here as the opposite to passive electrode. Electrodes are the pads attached to the skin to get readings, and active ones don't need a conductive paste to get a good signal.
