VALENCY CHANGE
Anode
The electrode of an electrolyte cell at which Oxidation occurs. Electrons
flow away from the anode in the external circuit. It is usually at the
electrode that corrosion occurs and metal ions enter solution.
Cathode
The electrode of an electrolytic cell at which Reduction is the principal
reaction. Typical cathodic processes are cations taking up electrons and being
discharged, oxygen being reduced, and the reduction of an element from a
higher to a lower valence state.
