Electrolytic refining is a process of refining a metal mainlycopper by the process of electrolysis as far as the mechanism of the process is concerned during electrolysis a large chunk or slab of impure metal is used as the anode with a thin strip of pure metal at the cathode in this setup an electrolyte metal salt aqueous solution depending on the metal is often used
Iii althoughcopperis a good conductor of electricity it is a nonelectrolyte iin the solid state the electrostatic forces of attraction between the ions in the solid are very strong hence there are no free ions to conduct electricityalthough in the aqueous solution free ions present thus it conducts electricity
In the process of electrolytic refining ofcopper the electrolyte used is acidifiedcoppersulphate impure metal is made as an anode and pure metal is made as a cathode on passing the electric current through the electrolyte the impure metal from anode dissolves into the electrolyte solution
I the cathode is made of purecoppermetalii reaction at anodeoxidation reaction cu cu2 2e
When electric current is passed through the electrolyte the impure metal from the anode is dissolved in the electrolyte and an equal amount of pure metal from the electrolyte is deposited on the cathode the soluble impurities go into the solution whereas the insoluble impurities settle down at the bottom of the anode which is known as anode mud following diagram shows the electrolytic refining ofcopperin which anode is impurecopperand cathode is thin strip of purecopper
Many metals likecopper zinc tin lead are refined by this method process of electrolytic refining the apparatus consist of electrolytic tank containing acidifiedcoppersulphate solution as electrolyte a thick block of impurecoppermetal is made anode a thin strip of purecopper
Fig 910 scheme ofcopper electrorefining fig 911 acopper electrorefiningplant the reversible potential of the vat is equal to zero if the anode and the cathode are produced from the same metal the anode is not pure and with the exception of nickel anodes the content of the impurities seldom exceeds 1 and the content of impurities

These have a purecoppercathode on whichcopperis deposited eq 1320 and a lead anode rather than thecopperanode used inelectrorefining the lead anode reforms sulfuric acid from the hydrogen ions released from water instead of contributing dissolved lead to the electrolyte eq 1322
The metals likecopper silver lead etc are usually purified by the process of electrolysis inelectrorefiningthe pure metal acts as cathode and impure metal acts as the anode whereas the electrolyte is soluble salt of the same metal
