YT2095 Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 the positive terminal which has an excess of positive charge I`d be Very hesitant to say it that way, better to consider it Less Negative or Electron Deficient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedarkshade Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Cathode produces electrons... I don't know if the same principle applies in batteries but I know that it is a feature of metals that when heated they release electrons, then these electrons are absorbed by anode and this (if I remember) is called thermoelectronic emission...

YT2095 Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 it applies to cells and batteries (which are just cells wired together). but it`s best not to over complicate matters by introducing CR, that`s an entirely different topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably! But as soon as I saw electron release from negative terminal ,CR came to my mind. Though I had a doubt of posting or not since it's a bit of off-topic. Cheers!
