Statement II : In the process of obtaining pure copper by electrolysis method, copper blister is used to make the anode.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct from the options given below.

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Both Statement I and Statement II are true.
  • B Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
  • C Statement I is true but Statement II is false.
