In a wet cell electrons move from the negative electrode to the positive electrode?
A wet cell refers to a primary electric cell wherein the electrolyte is a liquid. It is true that in a wet cell, electrons move from the negative electrode to the positive electrode.
What is the cathode of a galvanic cell made with magnesium and gold?
the gold electrode
Name of one electrode and say is positive or negative?
The Cathode is the negative electrode; the anode is the positive electrode
What do you call the electrode connected to negative terminal of a cell?
The negative terminal is called the anode
What is a sentence for zinc?
The negative electrode of a dry cell battery was made of zinc.
What is the negative electrode of a voltaic cell called?
This is the anode.
What is anodize?
In Chemistry an anodic is an electroplating cell in an electrode in which it gets a negative charge as in a negative charge from a chemical reaction in a battery.
What happens when sodium ions come in contact with the negative electrode in a cell used for electrolysis?
the world end
What is meant by anode and cathode?
Anode is positive electrode which attracts the negative anions while cathode is the negative electrode which attracts the positive cations during electrolysis.
What is the purpose of the reference electrode?
A reference electrode is an electrode with a well-known electrode potential. Its main function is to serve as a half cell to build an electrochemical cell.
What is an electrobe that has a positive charge?
Assuming this is a misspelling of "electrode" ... Electrochemistry can be confusing, because the answer depends on the type of device! In a galvanic cell (or discharging battery), the positively charged electrode is the cathode. However, in an electrolytic cell (or recharging battery), the positively charged electrode is the anode. The easiest way to keep this straight is to remember that the cathode is the one the cations (positively charged ions) migrate towards, and the anode is the one the anions (negatively charged ions) migrate towards.
Difference between reference electrode and indicator electrode?
Often electrochemical studies are interested in one of the electrodes of the cell only. The second electrode is present to complete the cell. Electrode of interest is named working electrode or the indicator electrode; the second electrode is know as reference electrode or auxiliary electrode (counter electrode).
