What happens to the electrolyte after the electrolysis of aqueous CuSO4 using inert electrodes?

it becomes more concentrated. OH- ions are discharged and so are Cu2+ ions discharged. what is left is SO42- ions and H+ ions which form sulfuric acid. over a longer time, the sulfuric acid becomes more concentrated.
