Electroplating Process for a Silver Spoon with Gold
To coat a silver spoon with gold, we take the acidified solution of the metal to be coated (gold chloride with hydrochloric acid) as an electrolyte and the article to be electroplated (silver spoon) is taken as a cathode.
Take a thick plate of the metal to be deposited (gold plate) as an anode.
The silver spoon is cleaned with a dilute acid solution to remove the oxide layer from its surface and washed in running water until it is free from the acid.
The silver spoon thus cleaned is suspended in the acidified gold chloride solution (electrolyte) kept in a beaker.
