In a nickel and copper electrolytic cell, nickel would likely be the anode since it typically undergoes oxidation to release electrons into the external circuit. Copper, on the other hand, would be the cathode where reduction reactions occur.

Why does a potato acquire a greenish deposit at the anode during electrolysis of potato?

You do not mention what you are using as the anode and cathode, but i would assume that given the green colour you are using copper or brass perhaps as the anode, and it is breaking down into a copper carbonate(which is green). By applying electrical current to the circuit you are speeding up the conversion of copper to copper carbonate(or similar).


Is a nickel less dense than a dime?

Both nickels and dimes are composed of Copper and Nickel. A dime, however, is 91.67% Copper and 8.33% Nickel, while a nickel is 75% Copper and 25% Nickel. Since Copper is a bit denser than Nickel, and a dime contains relatively more Copper, than a dime would be denser than a nickel.


Which would be the anode?

Basically anywhere where current flows in and out of a device - but the term is typically used for certain devices such as batteries, electrolytic cells, diodes, and others.

How could a sample of gas be collected at the anode during-electrolysis of copper sulfate?

A sample of gas collected at the anode during the electrolysis of copper sulfate would likely be oxygen gas (O2) due to the oxidation of water at the anode. This would be because during this process, water is split into oxygen gas and protons, with the oxygen gas being produced at the anode.


Is copper nickel free?

Copper itself is one of the elements. It contains nothing but copper. It might be alloyed with nickel sometimes, but that would not always be the case.You may be thinking of the fact that nickel was sometimes found mixed in with copper ore. Its hardness compared to that of copper caused such problems for miners in Saxony that they called it "Kupfernickel", a German word that translates roughly as "Devil's copper". Eventually the "Kupfer" prefix was dropped, giving us the word we use today.
