The item to be plated should be attached to the negative terminal of the battery.

The cathode gets coated during electroplating.
Yes, you can remove the gold from a gold-plated item through processes like chemical stripping or electroplating. These processes involve dissolving the plated gold layer, leaving behind the base metal of the item.
Approx 3 years for gold electroplating.

Anodes are often made of materials like graphite or lead, which are naturally black in color. These materials are chosen for their conductivity and chemical stability during the electroplating process, despite their color. The color of the anode does not affect the electroplating process, as it is the metal ions in the solution that determine the final plated color.
During electroplating, the metal that is to be plated (such as nickel or chromium) is deposited onto the surface of the object being electroplated. This is achieved by passing an electric current through a solution containing dissolved ions of the metal being plated. The metal ions are attracted to the object's surface and form a thin layer of the desired metal.
The metal being used as the cathode
During electroplating, metal ions from the anode are transferred to the cathode where they deposit onto the object being plated. This transfer of metal ions results in the anode losing some of its mass, causing it to become thinner over time as the metal is gradually depleted.
Michael Faraday worked out that the thickness of metal electroplating deposits in a certain time depends on the amount of electrical current, the concentration of the solution and the position the metal holds in the 'electrochemical series.'
Yes and no. Yes if the item was originally Sheffield plate and no if the item was originally electro-plated.
Electroplate, it means that it is plated Sorry
