Question

Difference between cathode and anode

Answer 1

Cathode :

Cathode is the negatively charged electrode.

Cathode is the electrode where metals are deposited.

Cations are deposited on cathode.

It is the electrode which accepts electrons .

Anode :

Anode is the positively charged electrode.

Anode is the electrode where non metals are deposited.

Anions are deposited on cathode.

It is the electrode which donates electrons .

Answer 2

$\mathfrak{\huge{ANSWER:}}$


Cathode:-


• The cathode is the negatively charged electrode.

• The cathode attracts cations or positive charge.

• The cathode is the source of electrons or an electron donor. 

• It may accept positive charge.

Anode:-


• The anode is the positively charged electrode.

• The anode attracts electrons or anions.

• The anode may be a source of positive charge or an electron acceptor.

• An anode is an electrode through which the conventional current enters into a polarized electrical device.
