" Anode " is generally refer to POSITIVE. Cathode generally refer to NEGATIVE. But these terms are use for different applications ( For example: you wouldn't refer to the POSITIVE side of a battery as ANODE or NEGATIVE side as CATHODE, it commonly refer as positive or negative when you are dealing with battery application etc. )
What else can I help you with?
Why do batteries have a positive and negative side?
they do because like magnets we have negative and positive ,negative and negative repel and vise verse but positive and negative attract
Which leg does current emit from in a LED?
Current flows from the anode (positive terminal) to the cathode (negative terminal) in a LED. The longer leg of the LED indicates the positive anode side, while the shorter leg represents the negative cathode side.
In electrolysis move between two metal strips called?
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.
In electrolysis electrons move between two metal strips called?
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.
What are two terminals in a battery?
In a car battery, the terminals are the heavy lead posts sticking up from the top of the battery, one labeled positive and one negative. Car batteries are of the lead-acid design, in which the anode (positive side) and cathode (negative side) are made of lead and lead dioxide, and as current leaves the battery through the anode both electrodes (anode and cathode) are chemically converted to lead sulphate. Cars use an alternator to send some of the current from the battery back to the anode, which partially converts the lead sulphate back into lead and lead dioxide, thus greatly lengthening the life of the battery.
What end does electrons flow in a circuit?
the positive side, the negative side is usually just a ground
How do manufacturers of batteries that use batteries make sure you do not install the batteries incorrectly?
They put a +(positive) and -(negative) on each side. The + matches with a - and vice versa.
What are the negative and positive aspects of battery technology?
Battery technology has both negative and positive aspects. On the negative side, batteries can be expensive, have limited lifespan, and can be harmful to the environment if not disposed of properly. On the positive side, batteries provide portable power, are rechargeable, and can store energy from renewable sources like solar and wind power.
In a potato battery is the zinc negative or positive?
Its confusing because its assumed the Anode positive which isn't always the case in electrochemical devices. In the potato battery. Zinc Side Negative. [-] Anode Copper Side Positive [+] Cathode Further reference: WikiPedia: http:/enzperiodzwikipediazperiodzorg/wiki/Anode '...A widespread misconception is that anode polarity is always positive (+). This is often incorrectly inferred from the correct fact that in all electrochemical devices negatively charged anions move towards the anode (hence their name) and/or positively charged cations move away from it. In fact anode polarity depends on the device type, and sometimes even in which mode it operates, as per the above electric current direction-based universal definition. Consequently, as can be seen from the following examples, in a device which consumes power the anode is positive, and in a device which provides power the anode is negative.'
What condition under is a diode never intentionally operated?
In the reverse-bias condition, the negative terminal of the source is connected to the anode side of the circuit and the positive terminal is connected to the cathode side.
Can you charge two 6v batteries in a series with a 12v charger and which posts do you connect the charger to?
Yes you can. Connect the chargers positive lead to the positive of one battery, then the negative side of that battery to the positive side of the other battery, then connect the negative lead of the charger to the negative of the second battery. Double check all your connections and turn on the charger.
In which direction do electrons flow?
From anode to cathode.
