lithium-ion cell
21lithium — /lith ee euhm/, n. 1. Chem. a soft, silver white metallic element, the lightest of all metals, occurring combined in certain minerals. Symbol: Li; at. wt.: 6.939; at. no.: 3; sp. gr.: 0.53 at 20°C. 2. Pharm. the substance in its carbonate or… …
22Fuel cell — For other uses, see Fuel cell (disambiguation). Demonstration model of a direct methanol fuel cell. The actual fuel cell stack is the layered cube shape in the center of the image A fuel cell is a device that converts the chemical energy from a… …
23Concentration cell — A concentration cell is a limited form of a galvanic cell that has two equivalent half cells of the same material differing only in concentrations. One can calculate the potential developed by such a cell using the Nernst Equation. A… …
24Daniell cell — Daniell cells, 1836. The Daniell cell (var. sp. Daniel cell) was invented in 1836 by John Frederic Daniell, a British chemist and meteorologist, and consisted of a copper pot filled with a copper sulfate solution, in which was immersed an… …
25Nickel–lithium battery — The nickel–lithium battery, also known as Ni–Li, is an experimental battery using a nickel hydroxide cathode and lithium anode. The two metals cannot normally be used together in a battery, as there are no electrolytes compatible with both. The… …
26Metal–air electrochemical cell — The types of metal–air batteries have different capacities A metal–air electrochemical cell is an electrochemical cell of which the anode is a made from pure metal and the cathode connects to an inexhaustible supply of air.[1][2 …
27Primary cell — A primary cell is any kind of battery in which the electrochemical reaction is not reversible, rendering the cell non rechargeable. A common example of a primary cell is the disposable battery. Unlike a secondary cell, the reaction cannot be… …
28Clark cell — (1897) The Clark cell, invented by English engineer Josiah Latimer Clark in 1873, is a wet chemical cell (colloquially: battery) that produces a highly stable voltage usable as a laboratory standard. Contents …
29Chromic acid cell — The Chromic acid cell was a type of primary cell which used chromic acid as a depolarizer. The chromic acid was usually made by acidifying (with sulfuric acid) a solution of potassium dichromate. The old name for potassium dichromate was… …
30Electrochemical cell — A demonstration electrochemical cell setup resembling the Daniell cell. The two half cells are linked by a salt bridge carrying ions between them. Electrons flow in the external circuit. An electrochemical cell is a device capable of either… …
