The anodic terminal of a battery is the positive terminal, which is where current flows out of the battery. It is connected to the anode, which is the electrode that accepts electrons from the external circuit. The anode is typically made of a metal such as lead or zinc. The anodic terminal is also known as the positive terminal because it has a higher potential than the negative terminal. The negative terminal is the cathodic terminal, which is where current flows into the battery.
