Cool, but the electrodes are already kinda embedded in my head, because i did a course in roots, and the prefix cat- means negative.

thukon:
AHHHH WAIT A SECOND!!! MY BOOK SAYS THAT HYDROXIDE IS DISCHARGED AFTER NITRATES
So ill remember it as Someone Nice Only Cleans Broken Items.

nid404:
Theres another 1 to remember the fractions

Rolling------Refinery gas
Guns-------Gasoline
Nearly------Naphtha
Killed-------Kerosene
Drunk-------Diesel oil
Funny------Fuel oil
Limping-----Lubricating oil
Robber------Residue

here's another one ... i usually get confused in whether oxidation occurs at cathode or electrode, so, i keep in my mind the 5th letters,like:

 oxidAtion - Anode
 reduCtion - Cathode

@thukon- yesss hydroxide is discharged in preference!!! thanx for reminding,so now it is some1 nice only cleans broken items ;D
