  • Electrons flow from the negative end of a battery to the positive end. Electrons flow from higher electric potential to lower electric potential. ... Electrons have a negative charge. So when they are in an electric field, the force on the electron is in the opposite direction from the direction of the field.

Answer:

Electrons flow from the negative end of a battery to the positive end.

Electrons flow from higher electric potential to lower electric potential.

Explanation:

The negative end of a battery is supposed to be "ground" which is the reference point to measure voltage from. The negative end is defined as being 0 volts while the positive end is 9 volts (if we use a 9V battery as an example).

electrons flow from the low volt end to the high volt end, shouldn't it be the other way around given fact number 2

or u can define it like this

1) There is a conventional current flow direction that is defined as the flow from the higher potential to the low. It was defined a while ago, upon the discovery of the electricity. And it was defined incorrectly, but we still use it.

2) There is an electron flow. It is going from low potential to the high one thus opposite to the conventional flow.

hope it helps you .

if u felt it was helpful pls do mark it as brainliest
