favorite because it helps demonstrate how the galvanic cells that make up a car battery work. Some batteries use galvanic cells to transfer chemical energy into electric energy. They depend on two metals‚ a cathode or positive terminal (such as copper) and an anode or negative terminal (such as zinc). These are placed in an electrically conductive solution that allows ions to travel freely between the two metals. The solution is typically an acid. Car batteries use sulfuric acid‚ but potatoes contain

acid is frequently used as a demonstration because it occurs naturally in citrus fruits. The two metals often used are zinc‚ as in a galvanized nail‚ for the anode and copper‚ as in a penny‚ for the cathode. A lemon can be used as both the container and the source of citric acid. If a slit is made in one end of the lemon‚ the penny can be inserted about half-way. A galvanized nail is pushed into the lemon close to the other end. This is not a battery that will power anything useful‚ but a sensitive

best. Add just enough water but not too much. I guess if the dirt dries up‚ you’ll have to water the batteries along with the rest of the plants. The soda can version works but I haven’t tested extensively. You don’t really have to use a penny‚ just has to be copper. Perhaps other common materials would work better. Each cell gives you a useless 0.5 volts. But if you link them in series you can get more. I was able to light up an LED decently with 4 cells. Not quite as bright as Alkalines‚ but you

versus “Them”. By observing the characters of Sheldon Copper and Penny‚ and the whole episode in general‚ they reveal the contemporary American culture. Last but not least‚ the commercials reveal the target audience and the show’s significance. The two main characters in the show that constantly portray the battle in American culture‚ “Us” versus “them”‚ are Sheldon Cooper and Penny. Sheldon Cooper represents the “them” because he is a geek‚ and Penny is not; that is why she represents the “Us”. Dr
