Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
A carbon rod is not suitable for electroplating. This is due to the fact that metals can only be used for electroplating. Carbon is an element and not a metal. Carbon is also a poor conductor of electricity. In order to complete the circuit and the flow of current, a conducting material should be used instead of carbon. Metal can be used as an electrode, such as iron or copper.
