What is the metal used to extract copper from the solution of copper sulphate?..

Answer / Babita Singh

Copper can be extracted from its sulfate solution using iron, typically in a process called electrowinning. The principle involves passing an electric current through the solution, causing the copper ions to plate onto a cathode (usually made of iron) while the iron acts as an anode and gets oxidized into iron(III) ions that are dissolved in the electrolyte.
