Re: cathode vs anode
If you're given the cell diagram, the cathode is usually on the right of the diagram and the anode on the left.

Re: cathode vs anode
I'm not sure what you mean by cell notation but in a cell diagram your anode is on the left hand side and the cathode is on the right hand side.

Re: cathode vs anode
Remember that the cathode will be on the right and the anode will be on the left. Electrons always flow from left to right because it's commonly accepted that the anode will be left and the cathode will be right.

Re: cathode vs anode
If Ecell is positive, the anode is on the left and the cathode is on the right. If Ecell is negative, the anode is on the right and the cathode is on the left.

Re: cathode vs anode
anode is on the left and cathode is on the right. if youre looking at the reactions taking place in in the cell, the anode is where oxidation takes place and the cathode is where reduction takes place
