Answer:

Hey mate,

Your answer is as follows:

Canal rays are the rays of radiation which emerges in a tube which has been discharged and has the property of low pressure with voltage of high value conditions. Explanation: These canal rays are thus positive in nature of charge. They are also referred to as the Anode rays.

Answer:

Goldstein in 1886 discovered the presence of new radiations in a gas discharge and called them canal rays. The beam of rays which travel in a direction away from anode towards cathode when gas is taken in a discharge tube is subjected to the action of high voltage under low pressure is known as canal rays. These rays were positively charged radiations which ultimately led to the discovery of another sub-atomic particle.

Explanation:

A German scientist, E.Goldstein modified the discharge tube and passed an electric current through it.

He found that positively charged rays were emitted from the anode in the discharge tube. These rays were called 'Canal Rays'.

 

When an electric field was applied, these rays deflected towards the negatively charged plate. Thus, Goldstein concluded that an atom contains positively charged particles along with the electrons.

These positively charged particles were named as 'protons' by a British scientist, Ernest Rutherford.

Canal rays were also called anode rays since they emitted from anode (electrode connected to positive terminal of high voltage source) in the gas discharge experiments using perforated cathode.
