MCQ
The anode mud in the electrolytic refining of silver contains
  • A
    $Zn, \,Cu, \,Ag,\, Au$
  • B
    $Zn,\, Ag,\, Au$
  • $Au$ only
  • D
    $Cu, \,Ag, \,Au$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$Au$ only
c
$Au$ is less reactive than $Ag$. Hence, it remains in the anode mud. Metals that are more reactive than $Ag$ will be in the electrolytic solution. The anode mud in the electrolyte refining of silver contains $Au.$
