Detailed explanation-1: -An anion may be defined as an atom or molecule that is negatively charged. A cation may be defined as an atom or molecule that is positively charged.
Detailed explanation-2: -An anion is a negatively charged atom or group of atoms . Anions are attracted to the anode, or positive electrode, in an electrolytic cell. Some common anions are the hydroxide ion (OH-), the chloride ion (Cl-), the nitrate ion (NO3-), and the bicarbonate ion (HCO3-).
Detailed explanation-3: -As the electrons are moving away from the anode, the anode has a positive charge. This implies that the cathode has a negative charge. We know that anions are the ions that have a net negative charge and cations are the ions that have a net positive charge.
