Chemistry Batteries [Chemistry HSC Course-1] What is an Anode? An anode is the negatively charged electrode of an electrical device but in this a primary cell‚ that supplies current. What is a Cathode? A cathode is the positively charged electrode of an electrical device which in this case is a primary cell‚ that supplies current. What is Current? A flow of current which results from the ordered directional movement of electrically charged particles. A current is the rate of flow of charge

A battery‚ which is actually an electric cell‚ is a device that produces electricity from a chemical reaction. In a one cell battery‚ you would find a negative electrode; an electrolyte‚ which conducts ions; a separator‚ also an ion conductor; and a positive electrode. Batteries are made of magnesium dioxide‚ graphite‚ electrolytes‚ zinc oxide and a paper soaked in an electrolyte solution. All of this is sealed in a insulated tube for safety. http://answers.ask.com/consumer_electronics/other/what_are_batteries_made_of

The dry cell or Leclanche cell was the first commercial battery and therefore had a big impact on society. It is the most common and the cheapest of the commercially available cell and is most widely used in torches‚ portable radios and battery-operated clocks. It is best used for low drain appliances‚ which need only small currents such as portable items (radio). It consists of a zinc outer casting‚ the anode‚ an aqueous paste of ammonium chloride and a mixture of powdered carbon and manganese
