- The physics concept refers to the higher potential (potential) end of the power supply. It is also used in electrochemistry.
- Physics concept, the positive electrode refers to the higher potential (potential) end of the power supply, which is opposite to the negative electrode.
- In electrochemistry, the habit of using physics is used. In the primary battery, the device is the power source, and the electrode with the current flowing out has a higher potential and is the positive electrode. This electrode plays a reducing role, that is, the ions or molecules get electrons. In the electrolytic cell, the device is an electrical appliance, which is based on the connected power source. The electrode connected to the positive electrode of the power supply is oxidized, that is, ions or molecules lose electrons, which is different from the original battery.
