Solution

The correct option is A

cathode


Electroplating:

  1. The cathode is the object on which electroplating takes place (negative terminal).
  2. The anode is the metal that will be plated as a layer on the object (positive terminal).
  3. As an electrolyte, a salt solution of the metal to be deposited is used.

Therefore, option A is correct.
