Solution
The correct option is A True
Electroplating is a process that uses electric current to deposit/reduce dissolved metal cations so that they form a thin coherent metal coating on an electrode.
It is used to coat a relatively mundane metal, such as copper, with a thin layer of another, more precious metal, such as gold or silver.
