If the anode and cathode of a battery touch, it creates a short circuit. This can lead to a rapid discharge of energy from the battery, potentially causing it to overheat, leak, or even explode. It is important to keep the anode and cathode separated to ensure safe operation of the battery.
What else can I help you with?
What is true of both galvanic and electrolytic?
reduction happens at the cathode Oxidation happens at the anode
What is true of both and electrolytic cells?
reduction happens at the cathode Oxidation happens at the anode
What is the ion release in between cathode and anode?
Ions are released at the anode during oxidation, and they move towards the cathode through the electrolyte. At the cathode, the ions gain electrons and are reduced. This process results in the transfer of ions between the cathode and anode.
Cations are attracted to cathod or anode?
DNA is neither cathode or anode, but it is negatively charged, so the DNA molecules will rn from anode to cathode
How is the metal used in an anode different from the metal used in a cathode?
Anode is positive and cathode is negative. Cathode is the longest led frame. Anode is where the oxidation reaction takes place while cathode is where the reduction reaction takes place or in a galvanic corrosion the anode is the metal that corrodes while the cathode is protected.
What is true of both galvanic and electrolytic?
reduction happens at the cathode Oxidation happens at the anode
What happens when smaller area is provided to cathode than anode?
When the area provided to the cathode is smaller than the anode the electrons will still flow.
What is true of both and electrolytic cells?
reduction happens at the cathode Oxidation happens at the anode
What happens to voltage as you move the anode and cathode closer in a fruit battery?
the voltage will go down when the anode and cathode are closer together but will go up when they are further apart
What is cathode and anode?
cathode is electron negative but anode is positiveAnswerFor electrochemical cells, electrons travel through the external circuit from the anode to the cathode.
The relationship between a cathode and an anode involves what?
The relationship between a cathode and an anode involves
What happens at the anode and cathode of a dry cell?
Oxidation occurs at the anode ("an ox") and reduction occurs at the cathode ("red cat").See the Web Link to the left for the specific reaction in a dry cell.
What is the anode and cathode of Baghdad's battery?
the copper cylinder(cathode) and iron rod(anode)
That is function anode and cathode piping?
that is function of anode and cathode in underground piping yes
On a silicon-controlled rectifier which wire is the anode and which the cathode?
Anode is positive, cathode is negative
In cathode ray tube cathode and anode rays travel opposite to each other but they are not neutralized. why?
There is no such thing as anode rays. The cathode rays (aka electron beam) just travels from cathode to anode.
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.
