What is the positive electrode called?

Anode
Cathode
Electrode
Galvanic charge

The correct answer is: Anode

The positive electrode is called the anode. In an electrochemical cell or device, such as a battery, the anode is where oxidation occurs, resulting in the loss of electrons. This process creates a flow of electrons towards the cathode, which is the negative electrode. The anode is always associated with the positive charge in an electrochemical system. The other options are not correct in this context: - Cathode is the negative electrode. - Electrode is a general term that refers to both the anode and cathode. - Galvanic charge is not a standard term for describing electrodes in electrochemistry.
