39. What is the CLASSIFICATION of an apparatus for electroplating flatware made up of silver anodes, an electrolytic solution, and a direct -current (DC) power source? The apparatus is designed for silver anodes and brass (copper -zinc) flatware cathodes to be immersed in the electrolyt ic solution. The apparatus functions by applying a positively- charged electric current through the anodes and a negatively- charged current through the cathodes. These charges cause silver atoms to dissolve in the electrolytic so lution and move toward the negatively- charged brass flatware, thereby coating the brass flatware with silver.
