उत्तर
(i) Copper will deposit at cathode.
(ii) Copper will dissolve at anode.
Explanation:
In the electrolysis process of \[\ce{CuSO4}\] the following reactions occur at the half cell which is as follows:
At the cathode, the reaction goes this way,
\[\ce{Cu^{2+} + 2e^{-} -> Cu(s)}\]
At the anode, the reaction goes this way,
\[\ce{Cu(s) -> Cu^{2+} + 2e^{-}}\]
Here copper will be deposited at the cathode and copper will dissolve at the anode.
