Two platinum electrodes were immersed in a solution of cupric sulphate and electric current passed through the solution. After sometime, it was found that the colour of copper sulphate disappeared with evolution of gas at the electrode. The colourless solution contains:

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

Sulphuric acid

Option D (Sulphuric acid) is correct because during electrolysis of

CuSO_4

, copper is deposited at the cathode and oxygen is evolved at the anode, leaving sulphuric acid in the solution.
