Teach Battery Technology with Class-Built Wet Cells
Roman, Harry T.
Tech Directions, v71 n5 p27-30 Dec 2011
With some simple metal samples and common household liquids, teachers can build wet cell batteries and use them to teach students about batteries and how they work. In this article, the author offers information that is derived from some simple experiments he conducted in his basement workshop and can easily be applied in the classroom or lab. He discusses how to teach battery technology with class-built wet cells. (Contains 2 figures and 1 table.)
