True or False: When two unlike metals are submerged in an electrolyte solution, the metal that accumulates electrons is the negative pole.

The statement is accurate because in electrochemical cells, when two unlike metals are immersed in an electrolyte solution, a galvanic reaction occurs where one metal will lose electrons (oxidation) while the other gains electrons (reduction). The metal that gains electrons becomes the negative pole, also referred to as the cathode. This is a fundamental principle of electrochemistry: in any chemical reaction involving the transfer of electrons, the element that gains electrons (reducing agent) develops a negative charge and is categorized as the negative pole. Thus, when differing metals are involved, the metal that tends to accumulate electrons will indeed be identified as the negative pole in the electrochemical arrangement.
