Which metal acts as the cathode during silver plating?
Cathode, as the fork attracts silver cations (+ ions)
Is the electrode the metal or graphite rod in an electric cell?
Tt depends on the metal which is the cathode and which is the anode. However, in most cases, graphite is the cathode and the metal is the anode. the strictly correct answer is that BOTH the metal and the graphite rod are electrodes. You must have two electrodes minimum to create a cell.
What forms at the cathode during electrolysis of a metal compound?
reduction reaction.
What metal is present at both cathode and the anode in a car battery?
Lead
How is the metal used in an anode different from the metal used in a cathode?
Anode is positive and cathode is negative. Cathode is the longest led frame. Anode is where the oxidation reaction takes place while cathode is where the reduction reaction takes place or in a galvanic corrosion the anode is the metal that corrodes while the cathode is protected.
What happens at the cathode in an electrolytic cell?
Reduction occurs at the cathode in an electrolytic cell.
When molten sodium chloride is electrolysed the product at cathode is?
sodium metal is deposited at the cathode.
Do metals form at the anode or cathode?
Oxidation takes place at the anode and reduction takes place at the cathode, so elemental metal will form at the cathode, and elemental metal will form into ions at the anode.
Where did the electrons from cathode ray come from?
In a cathode ray tube (CRT), the particles, which are electrons, originate at the heated cathode, becoming the so-called cathode rays. The electrons stream off the cathode and rush over to the anode.
How is the metal used in an anode different from the metal used in cathode?
copper-zinc
Which metal acts as the cathode during silver plating?
Cathode, as the fork attracts silver cations (+ ions)
Difference between direct and indirect cathode ray?
In a directly heated cathode, the filament is the cathode and emits the electrons. In an indirectly heated cathode, the filament or heater heats a separate metal cathode electrode which emits the electrons.
What is the process of electrorefining?
In an electro-refining system the deposited metal is collected without the need to remove the cathode from the slurry bath. The cathode has a hollow cavity permitting steam or hot water to be introduced to heat the cathode. During the deposition process, the heating of the cathode encourages the deposition process. When the deposited material is to be collected, the cathode is heated to "melt" the bonds between the cathode and the deposited metal. Using a bracket which was installed before the deposition process and into which the deposited metal has been formed; the now-released sheet of deposited metal is easily removed.
What effect will a positively charged metal plate have on a cathode ray?
Since a cathode ray is a stream of electrons, and since electrons are negatively charged, a positively charged metal plate would cause a deflection in the cathode ray towards the plate.
What happens in the cathode?
Metals ions form solid metal
What would be the cathode in a magnesium and zinc galvanic cell?
In a galvanic cell, the less reactive metal is the cathode, where oxidation takes place. In this case the cathode is zinc.
How is electroplating done?
the metal on which electroplating is to be done is taken as cathode ( negative electrode) . the metal of which electroplating is to be done is taken as anode ( positive electrode) and the salt solution of the metal of which electroplating is to be done is taken as electrolyte . example- if we want to electroplate iron with copper then iron is taken as cathode and copper is taken as anode and electrolyte is copper sulphate.Electroplating is the process of plating one metal onto another by hydrolysis, most commonly for decorative purposes. This is done through the use of copper in a copper sulfate bath.
