The diagram shows a beaker containing a solution of zinc sulphate and two carbon electrodes. A battery is placed next to it. In order that the electrode P be plated with zinc,


A P must be connected to S and Q to R
B P must be connected to Q and S to R
C P must be connected to R and Q to S
D P and Q must be connected to R.


The answer would be a as znso4 wold breakdown into zn 2and so42-ions .the zn 2 would be attracted towards cathode(negative terminal) so p would be attached to negative terminal and therefore the answer is a.

Ans 1:

Nishtha Neelabh from Lok Puram Public School, Thane West
Class : Class 6
answer should be A, as hydrogen is not released at cathode if the other cation is Zinc or below in the electrochemical series

Class : Class 8
Yes it is A

Ans 3:

Raghav Tyagi from birla vidya niketan, new delhi
Class : Class 10
In reactivity series hydrogen is below zinc and is less reactive than zinc. As hydrogen below zinc therefore will reduce more and earlier than zinc , hence will go to cathode and zinc will reduced or deposit at anode. therefore P will be connected to R and Q to S.hence ans is :C

sedimentation and decantation is the answer . but filtration can not come because we can see in the picture itself that the particles are big ,that's why sedimentation and decantation . if the particles are small but yet insoluble , then only it is filtration . I hope that you understood.

Ans 3:

Mallika Gupta from NPS indiranagar, Bangalore
Class : Class 9
it needs to be sedimentation and decantation because the insoluble material present in the liquid is quite heavy you only perform filtration when the particles float over the surface of the water

Ans 4:

Shivangi from St. Michael's High School, Patna
Class : Class 5
Ya, filtration can also remove insoluble impurities but in this case sedimentation and decanation is more appropriate answer.

Ans 5:

Gauri Singh from St. John's School, Marhauli, Varanasi
Class : Class 8
Yes, but in the given figure it is sedimentation
