The anode and cathode are defined by the flow of current.The cathode is the negatively charged electrode.The anode is the positively charged electrode.
Molecules migrate to different electrodes depending on the charge they carry. Positively charged dyes migrate toward the anode (the negative electrode) and negatively charged dyes migrate toward the cathode (the positive electrode)
The cathode is negatively charged. A good way to remember this is thinking of what it's doing. A cathode attracts cations which are positively charged. In order to attract a positive charge, the charge on the electrode must be oppositely charged. So it has to carry a negative charge. The opposite is true for the anode. Since it attracts anions which are negatively charged, the electrode must carry a positive charge.
Zinc is the anode.
according to me anode should be oxidizing electrode as oxidation reaction takes place on anode
Yes, Anode is a positively charged electrode.
A positive electrode is a cathode. A negative electrode is an anode.An anode is positively charged, while a cathode is negatively charged.
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.

A cathode is an electrode through which electrical current exits a polarized electrical device. Its opposite is the anode, through which electrical current enters the electrical device. Positively charged ions, called cations, move towards the cathode, while negatively charged ions, called anions, move towards the anode.
The two electrodes of the alkaline battery are zinc and manganese dioxide. Zinc is the anode, or the electrode that becomes negatively charged due to the electrolyte. Manganese dioxide is the cathode, or the electrode that becomes positively charged.
No, anode rays are not negatively charged. They are positively charged ion.
An anion is a negatively charged ion. A cation is a positively charged ion.Anion gets its name from the fact that anions migrate to the anode (positively charged electrode). Cation gets its name because cations migrate to the cathode (negatively charged electrode). Note, therefore, that the charge on the ion is opposite the charge of the electrode toward which it migrates. (Positive attracts negative and negative attracts positive).
It can be either positively or negatively charged
The Cathode is the negative electrode; the anode is the positive electrode
Electrodes, the positive side is called the Cathode and the Negative side is called the Anode.The anode and cathode. The anode is positively charged and the cathode is negative.
