What is a battery anode?

The anode in a battery is the negative terminal that is constantly associated with the release of electrons in the external circuit. Anode in a rechargeable cell is the positive pole during charge and negative pole during discharge. For a viable development of a high energy density battery (battery that can store more power in a given space per unit volume like …
