Important Questions on Electrolytic Cells and Electrolysis
On electrolysis of an aqueous solution of , the products released at cathode and anode are, respectively

Copper sulphate solution (250 mL) was electrolysed using a platinum anode and a copper cathode. A constant current of 2 mA was passed for 16 minutes. It was found that after electrolysis the absorbance of the solution was reduced to 50% of its original value. The concentration of copper sulphate in the solution at the beginning would be:
