Question

Difference between cathode and anode ​

Answer 1

What is an Anode?

Anode is the terminal where the (conventional) current flows into a device from outside. This means that electrons flow out of the device at the anode.

What is a Cathode?

Cathode is the terminal where the (conventional) current flows out of a device. This means that electrons flow into this terminal from the outside.

Answer 2

CATHODE :

Cathode is the negatively charged electrode .

Metals are deposited in the cathodes .

Cations are deposited in the cathodes .

Cathode is the electrode where electricity flows out .

ANODE :

Anode is the positively charged electrode .

Non-metals are deposited in the anodes .

Anions are deposited in the anodes .

Anode is the electrode where electricity flows into.
