MCQ
In electrolytic capacitors positive terminal is
  • A
    one on which aluminium oxide film is not formed
  • B
    one on which aluminium oxide film is formed
  • C
    none of the these
  • D
    either of the two terminals

Answer

(b) one on which aluminium oxide film is formed
Explanation: Aluminium electrolytic capacitors have the Aluminium foil anode (positive terminal) which is etched and covered with a layer of Aluminium Oxide which acts as a dielectric. The whole assembly is covered using a paper separator soaked in electrolyte such as, Borax or Glycol and covered by Aluminium foil which acts as cathode (negative electrode)
