Hallâs conduct was first discovered by OGS who then referred the matter to my office and the Office of the State Comptroller. The joint investigation found that a company, owned by a witness known to the Attorney General, overbilled OGS by $419,000 for work performed at state prisons.
1. The positive electrode in an electrolytic cell, toward which negatively charged particles are attracted. The anode has a positive charge because it is connected to the positively charged end of an external power supply. 2.
The anode is not always the positive lead. It is the electrode through which electric current flows into a polarized electrical device. For a discharging battery, this is the negative lead. This is how I connected anode/anion and cathode/cation during chemistry class when we were discussing batteries. I was confused when I learned that for other components, such as an LED, the kathode is negative, and the anode is positive.
