Question

Difference between cathode and anode​

Answer 1

$\pink{\bold{\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}}}$

⚫ Anode

♦ The electrode connected to the positive terminal of the battery.

♦ Current enters the electrolyte through the anode.

♦ Anions migrate and discharge at the anode.

⚫ Cathode

♦ The electrode connected to the negative terminal of the battery.

♦ The battery current leave the electrolyte through the cathode.

♦ Cations migrate and discharge at the cathode

Answer 2

Answer:

Electrolytic cells convert electrical energy into chemical energy. Conventional current flows into the (+) terminal of the cell and comes out from (-) terminal. Electrons flow in reverse direction. Hence, the (+) electrode is called anode & the (-) electrode is called cathode.
