nickel-iron alkaline battery
31Dry cell — A dry cell is a galvanic electrochemical cell with a pasty low moisture electrolyte. A wet cell, on the other hand, is a cell with a liquid electrolyte, such as the lead acid batteries in most cars.While a dry cell s electrolyte is not truly… …
32Ion — Cation and Anion redirect here. For the particle physics/quantum computing concept, see Anyon. For other uses, see Ion (disambiguation). Hydrogen atom (center) contains a single proton and a single electron. Removal of the electron gives a cation …
33Metal–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 …
34Cathode — Diagram of a copper cathode in a galvanic cell (e.g., a battery). A positive current i flows out of the cathode (CCD mnemonic: Cathode Current Departs). A cathode is an electrode through which electric current flows out of a polarized electrical… …
35Voltaic pile — A copper zinc voltaic pile. A voltaic pile on disp …
36Electrolyte — This article is about the ionic solution. For the R.E.M. song, see Electrolite. In chemistry, an electrolyte is any substance containing free ions that make the substance electrically conductive. The most typical electrolyte is an ionic solution …
37Primary 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… …
38Daniell 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… …
39Clark 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 …
40Concentration 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… …
