A potato battery is a type of electrochemical cell. An electrochemical cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy. In the potato battery‚ there is a transfer of electrons between the zinc coating the galvanized nail that will be inserted into the potato and the copper wire that will be inserted another part of the potato. The potato conducts electricity‚ yet keeps the zinc ions and copper ions separate‚ so that the electrons in the copper wire are forced to move (generate current). It’s

Philippines is facing power crisis. Through the use of various technologies including such unconventional resources as wind and solar energy they were able to supply power to cities and towns. But civilizing rural places reduces the sources of power. The more houses are good but the more they have‚ the more electricity is consumed. Now‚ consuming too much energy affects the expenses of the government though there are a lot of sources of energy in the Philippines. A power crisis results to shutting

Somehow‚ in different area Lemon have many uses thus it has also many benefits. Normally‚ lemon is as flavor pies‚ pudding‚ frosting‚ candies‚ jams‚ and marmalades. They are served with fish and some kinds of meat. Lemon juice is used in salad dressings and in tea. Lemonade is popular hot-weather drink. In the other hand‚ Lemon is also good for health.

POTATO INTO BATTERY Abstract a.Purpose To lessen the consume of electric charge b. Procedure We insert copper and zinc electrodes in to the potato‚ close but not touching each other. We use Clip leads to connect our electrodes to the Multimeter to measure voltage between two electrodes or current passing through the multimeter. For this experiment we used a galvanized nail for our Zinc electrode. c. Result It did go well and the potato did give voltage to the equipment (clock) However‚ the

1. PAPER BATTERY 1.1 INTRODUCTION Traditionally‚ electronics have been designed around their batteries. The batteries form a significant part of many electronic devices. Typical electrochemical batteries or cells convert chemical energy into electrical energy. Batteries based on the charging ability are classified into primary and secondary cells. Secondary cells are widely used because of their rechargeable nature. Presently‚ battery takes up a huge amount of space and contributes to a

Not only can batteries have a toxic effect on humans but if disposed of improperly they can damage water quality and wildlife. “A battery is a package of one or more galvanic cells used for the production and storage of electric energy by chemical means. A galvanic cell consists of at least two half cells‚ a reduction cell and

Fruits Professor Kelechi Mezu Introduction to Biology – SCI 115 March 2‚ 2010 We use our sense of taste to differ if fruit is sweet or sour. That taste depends on the components in the fruit. Fruits contain fructose‚ acids‚ vitamin‚ starch‚ proteins‚ and cellulose. All of these components contribute to the taste of fruit. Fruits with high fructose levels tend to be sweeter whereas fruits with high levels of acid tend to be sour. Oranges however‚ have equal quantities of fructose and acids

Introduction Batteries are used every day in a variety of different devices. They allow us to charge an object and store power for later use. While batteries are a big part of daily human life they also present a challenge to society in terms of environmental sustainability. Not only do these batteries have harmful chemicals which can end up in landfills‚ but they also encourage over consumption because the more products you buy‚ the more batteries you need‚ and the more batteries must be produced
