Depending on the capacitor we are using it will have a cathode.For example if we take a unicapacitor(it will allow current on both sides) it will have a negative and a bi capacitor it will not have negative

∙ 13y agoA capacitor can build up either a positive or a negative charge. It simply depends on which direction the current flows.

Name of one electrode and say is positive or negative?
The Cathode is the negative electrode; the anode is the positive electrode
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.
Why electrons move from negative end of the tube to the positive end?
Electrons have a negative charge and are attracted by the positive end.
Why electrons move from anode to cathode?
The words are all arbitrary - - - BUT electrons have a "negative" charge and are attracted to a positive voltage. (Opposites attract.)
How are capacitors polarized?
A polarized ("polar") capacitor is a type of capacitor that have implicit polarity-it can only be connected one way in a circuit. The positive lead is shown on the schematic (and often on the capacitor) with a little "+" symbol. The negative lead is generally not shown on the schematic, but may be marked on the capacitor with a bar or "-" symbol. Polarized capacitors are generally electrolytics.
Is a cathode positive or negative?
A cathode is negative. It attracts cations, which are positively charged.
0n an LED what are the names of the positive and the negative leg?
Anode and cathode. Anode = negative lead, cathode = positive lead.
Name of one electrode and say is positive or negative?
The Cathode is the negative electrode; the anode is the positive electrode
What is the charge of the particle in cathode rays?
Cathode rays are attracted to the positive charge on the anode! They are repelled by the negative charge on the cathode.
What is a positive electrode?
A positive electrode is a cathode. A negative electrode is an anode.An anode is positively charged, while a cathode is negatively charged.
The terminals of a diode are called the?
anode positive potential cathode negative potential
How can you identify a cathode nigative to an LED?
LED has two pins,one is anode(positive) and the other is cathode(negative).The smaller pin is cathode(negative) and the longer pin is anode(positive).
Why do cathode rays move from the negative end of the tube to the positive end?
Because an electron carries a negative charge and in electricity, opposites attract. Particles with a negative charge will be drawn to the positive charge in the cathode tube.
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 do you call a negative electrode?
Cathode- is the negative electrode.Anode- is the positive electrode.
On a silicon-controlled rectifier which wire is the anode and which the cathode?
Anode is positive, cathode is negative
Compare an anode and a cathode?
The Anode (+) is what you connect the positive voltage to The Cathode (-) is what you connect the negative voltage to.
