A node is a software application that implements the Ethereum specification and communicates over the peer-to-peer network with other Ethereum nodes.

A client is a specific implementation of Ethereum node.

The two most common client implementations are Geth and OpenEthereum.

Ethereum transactions are sent to Ethereum nodes to be broadcast across the peer-to-peer network.
