Here is the Perfect answer :----

#Anode

➡The anode of a device is the terminal where current flows in from outside.

➡In a galvanic cell, the anode is the electrode at which the oxidation reaction takes place or occurs.

➡Oxidation takes place at the anode and where electrons are lost, and

▶ reduction takes place at the cathode where the electrons are gained.

➡The anode is taken to be positive while the cathode is Now as negative.

#Cathode

➡A cathode is known as the electrode from which a conventional current leaves a polarized electrical device.

➡In a galvanic (voltaic) cell, the anode is considered negative(-) and the cathode is considered positive(+).

➡Electrons always flow from the anode to the cathode .

OR

▶ from the oxidation half cell to the reduction half cell.

➡The cathode of a device is the terminal where current flows out.

hey mate

here is your answer

the electrode that is connected to the positive terminal of a battery is called anode.

the electrode that is connected to the negative terminal of a battery is called cathode.
