Hello everyone!
I just had a quick question regarding cathodes and anodes. In chemistry, I know that an anode is a site of oxidation and the cathode is the site of reduction. However, I noticed that with a cathode-ray tube, for instance, a cathode emits electrons to an anode?
Are these two the same things or not? Can someone please differentiate?
Thanks!
