No, passwords are typically not stored in the cache. Instead, secure systems store passwords in a hashed format in a database, ensuring they are not directly retrievable. Caching mechanisms focus on improving performance by temporarily storing frequently accessed data, but sensitive information like passwords is usually excluded from this process for security reasons.
A Web cache is a temporary memory in your browser where temporary information about the web site you are visiting are stored. Information like login id, password, previous history of pages you visited etc would be stored in the cache...
Cache memory normally stored instructions and data that the processor likely to use frequently.
It is stored in the cache.

The memory used to hold the address of the data stored in a cache is typically referred to as the "tag" memory. Each cache line has an associated tag that identifies the specific block of main memory that the data corresponds to. When the processor checks the cache for data, it compares the requested address against the tags in the cache to determine if the data is present (cache hit) or not (cache miss).
The block offset in cache for the keyword "turn" refers to the specific location within a cache block where the data for the keyword is stored.
The root password is stored in hashed form in the /etc/shadow file.
The short answer is for speed. There is no point in storing data in a cache if there is no way to index the data to make it usable. Nor would there be any advantage if this data were stored in conventional DRAM.
Cache files are stored in the same directory as Chrome. You also need to enable hidden files to view them.
Constantly needed data is stored in RAM, and depending on the system and the CPU used, it may be stored in cache memory. Cache memory is a special, high-speed type of RAM. It is more expensive and uses more current than DRAM, but it is used where speed is critical. Cache memory is generally inside of the CPU these days.
