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.
