Zinc Carbon BatteryZinc carbon battery is being popularly used during last 100 years. Generally there are two types of zinc carbon battery generally available – Leclanche battery and Zinc chloride battery. Both of these are primary battery. This battery was invented by Goerge Lionel Leclanche in 1866. This was the first battery in which low corrosive electrolyte like ammonium chloride was used. Before that only strong mineral acids were used as electrolyte of battery system.In this battery cell,

Daniell Cell is the modified version of Voltaic Cell. Polarization drawback of Voltaic Cell is overcome in a Daniell Cell and it can be considered as an improved version of Voltaic Cell. Constructionwise Daniell Cell is quite simple.Construction of Daniell CellIt consists of a copper container filled with a concentrated solution of copper sulfate. Inside the container, there is one porous cylindrical pot filled with diluted sulphuric acid, immersed in the concentrated copper sulfate solution. On

Different types of battery with various configurations are available. With the inventions of various new consumer electronic devices, electric vehicles, renewable energy storage needs, space and military applications, battery power nowadays is consumed as food. If we look around us, we find a bunch of batteries hiding inside almost every device we have, wall clocks, mobile phones, laptops, watches, calculators, inverters, hair dryer, trimmers, toys and many more. Batteries make devices portable

A simple voltaic cell is made by immersing one zinc plate and one copper plate inside a water diluted sulfuric acid solution. As shown in the figure, if the copper plate and zinc plate are connected externally with an electrical load, an electric current starts flowing from copper plate to zinc plate through the load. That means there is some electrical potential difference developed between the copper plate and the zinc plate. As the current flows from copper to zinc, it is obvious that the cop

Aspace chargeis defined as a region of space where electric charges accumulate, either in free space or in a dielectric material. The electric charges can be either positive or negative, and they can be either mobile or immobile. The space charge can affect the electric field, the electric potential, and the current flow in the region.Examples of Space ChargeSpace charge can occur in various situations, such as: Semiconductor junctions: When a p-type semiconductor (which has excess holes) is bro
