For electroplating of metal with silver Cathode arrow Metal Anode arrow Ag Solution arrow Electrolyte containing Ag+

Q. When a metal is electroplated with silver $(Ag)$

The metal is the anode

Ag metal is the cathode

The solution contains $A g^{+}$ ions

The reaction at the anode is $A g \to A g^{+} + e^{-}$

For electroplating of metal with silver
Cathode $\to$ Metal
Anode $\to$ Ag
Solution $\to$ Electrolyte containing $A g^{+}$

Q. When a metal is electroplated with silver (Ag)

The metal is the anode

Ag metal is the cathode

The solution contains Ag+ ions

The reaction at the anode is Ag→Ag++e−

For electroplating of metal with silver Cathode → Metal Anode → Ag Solution → Electrolyte containing Ag+
