Electrolysis of a solution of Cu2+, Pb2+ & H2SO4
« on: May 17, 2007, 12:16:32 PM »
What reactions & on which electrodes take place in that solution? I think that metal Cu & Pb will appear on the anode:

Pb2+ = Pb + 2e-
Cu2+ = Cu + 2e-

is that right? And what about the acid?

Look up side reactions that may occur even before any electrolysis occurs.
