Identify the correct statements concerning anode rays (canal rays) produced in a modified discharge — Atomic Structure Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

Anode rays are positively charged material particles. Unlike cathode rays, their $e/m$ ratio depends heavily on the gas taken in the discharge tube, as they are formed from the ionized gaseous atoms. The ratio is maximum for hydrogen because the hydrogen ion ($H^+$, a proton) is the lightest positive ion. [20-25]
