Can someone explain to me why does increasing the electrolyte concentration can increase the electroplating rate/or metal deposit...? Take copper sulphate as an example. Better explanation with pics...And just don't go too far beyond the Faraday's law and please try to explain it in a more 'Chemistry' way. Thanks!

Elecrtroplating is a process where metal pin are reduce in electrolytic cell and solid metal deposite on to a surface.

The concentration of cu2+ ions remains constant in electrolyte because concentration of electrolyte increase the amount of cu2+ ions. Hence when cu2+ in are get converted into cu (s) then due to increasing concentration of cu2+ in electrolyte the conc remain same and increase the metal deposite rate due to increasing the polarity in solution.

Can someone explain to me for E1 mechanism, why OH is the one attacking the hydrogen instead of the conjugate (H2O)? One of the examples that my professor gave me was KOtBu/tBuOH.This one the congugate (tBuOH) is the one attacking the hydrogen instead of the base (KOtBu). I'm confused about if I'm suppose to use the conguate to attack the hydrogen or the base. Please help! He gave me a list of base that will be on the test (NaOH/H2O,...
