Cathode

of metal surface acts as anode and other as cathode. The chemical in the environment and humidity acts as an electrolyte. So the Oxidation of anodic part takes place and therefore corrosion product is formed on the surface of the metal between cathode and anode. To understand this theory, let us take a example of corrosion of Iron. Oxidation of metal happens at anode while the reduction process occurs at cathode. By taking rusting of Iron as an example,…

Thomson contradicted Dalton’s atomic theory by using a cathode ray tube. Thomson was born in 1856 and the cathode ray tube was invented in 1897; almost the same time during his years. He took a positive magnetic source near the rays and found the rays deflect to the positive and repel when a negative magnetic source was near it. From the classical physics of Newtonian physics, he figured that opposites attract and likes repel. Since the cathode rays followed the similar approach, hence they were…

performed before the flow field was analyzed to evaluate the effects of the waveform shape. The results were compared to the references. The sizes of the channel were calculated from the straight sections of the 25 unit cell channel. The width of the cathode was 0.5 mm and its length was 1 mm. The width of anode was 0.5 mm and its length was 0.6 mm. The ribs were structured every 0.5 mm on both sides of the channels. The thickness of the gas diffusion layers was 0.2 mm, that of the catalyst…

Research for AS91172 Billy Barrow From Thompson 's Model to Rutherford 's Model By the time that Joseph John Thompson confirmed that Cathode Rays were made up of negatively charged particles in 1897. The groundwork for the idea of the atom had been in the works for many years. From ideas from Leucippus and Democritus from ancient Greece who first proposed the idea of 'atomos ' meaning “inadvisable”. This idea of the smallest thing went on largely ignored in favour of the ideas of Aristotle,…

between the iron and oxygen creating the compound that is seen in the form of rust (Brownlee 2).“The movement of ions through the electrolyte solution completes the electric circuit that allows the electrons from ion to move from the anode to the cathode” (Brownlee 2). Electrolyte means a substance that dissolves in water making it be able to conduct electricity because of its mobile sea of electrons. This means that water with a dissolved substance such as salt, NaCl, on iron allows the…

How does a variation in the concentration of metal ions of the cathode in a Zinc-Copper electrochemical cell affect the electrical potential? Introduction: In a highly technological and quickly developing society, it is imperative to innovation that basic components are understood and explored to further expansion and advancement. In order to understand how everyday necessities such as cars, computers, and cell phones are constantly powered, it must first be understood what is in a battery as…

The Atomic Theory states that all matter is composed of discrete units called atoms. The Atomic Theory started in about 400 BCE with a scientist by the name of Democritus. Democritus proposed the idea of the existence of an ultimate particle. He called this particle atomos when he was describing it, because the particle was too small to cut. Next, we get to Leucippus. Leucippus was the man who founded atomism, which is a theoretical approach that states nature consists of two principles, which…

viewing. The development of the electron microscope in the 1930s revolutionized biology, allowing for organelles, such as mitochondria, to be seen in detail for the first time. Unlike light microscopy, TEM uses a beam of electrons, denoted as a cathode ray, to scan samples. While the traditional optical microscope is restricted in resolution by the wavelength of…

Nearly most of camera lens is made of glass. Now some manufacturers adopt sapphire to make camera lens. Compared with glass, the biggest advantage of sapphire is its hardness. It's nearly twice as hard as standard glass, and nearly as hard as diamond. The extremely high hardness means it is nearly impossible to scratch it. Sapphire also have a compressive strength of 2,000MP, about ten times that of stainless steel, which means it is extremely strong. Those attributes can guarantee the optics of…

and the pudding being the positively charged nucleus. He also created a new device that could analyze a chemical closer than the regular human could, called the mass spectrometer. The way the mass spectrometer worked was it works the same way as cathode ray. Except, instead of using electrons, it uses positive ions with ionized elements and deflected by electric and magnetic fields and the lower the mass and the higher the charge the farther its going to be deflected. This is how they discover…
