A. The process is called as electrolytic refining.
B. Cathode:Thin strip of pure copper
Anode: Impure copper
C. The addition of acid enhances the conductivity of the electrolyte and may prevent its hydrolysis.
D. The sulphate ion does not take part in the reaction and the concentration of the copper sulphate in solution does not change.
E. Replacement by graphite electrode will not make any difference as it is an inert eletcrode.
