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.

What does it mean when an object has a positive charge?
When an object has a positive charge, it has a deficiency of electrons.
If an object has a positive charge what has it done?
It has lost electrons, resulting in a more positive charge.
What is the charge of a positive sodium ion?
The charge of a positive sodium ion is +1 C.
Alpha particle charge?
positive charge
Is the nucleus positive due to the neutrons?
No. Neutrons have a neutral charge. The nucleus is positive due to the presence of protons which have a positive charge.
A charge on a proton?
The charge on a proton is deemed to be POSITIVE. NB The charge on an electron is deemed to be NEGATIVE ( opposite charge) The charge on a neutron is deemed to be ZERO(NO CHARGE).
What particles has a negative charge and which has a positive charge?
Negative charge = electron Positive charge = positron Positive charge = proton
What is a positive charge and particles called that have no charge?
A positive charge is a positive electrical charge. Particles with no charge are called neutral particles.
What is proton electric charge?
A proton has a positive electrical charge and an electron has a negative electrical charge.
Do metal ions have a positive charge?
On their own metals have no charge. Metal ions have a positive charge.
What is a positive charge plus a positive charge?
Two positive charges.
What is the charge on a electron called?
the charge of a proton is called positive charge neutron- negative charge electron- no charge
Is b a negative or positive charge?
A positive charge
What charge do protons carry?
The proton carries a positive electrostatic charge. That charge is given as a +1 or can be expressed as 1.602 x 10-19 C.
What is positve charge?
the positive charge is the proton but the nucleus is considered as the positive charge
What is the atom which has positive and negative charge?
Positive charge: cationNegative charge: anion
Do protons have a charge?
