Question

What is the potential of a dry cell?

Answer 1

1. Potential of a dry cell is$1.5\text{v}$.
2. A dry cell is a type of electric battery that is commonly used in household and portable electronic devices.
3. A battery is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy by using one or more electrochemical cells.
4. Depending on its nature, the dry cell can be classified as a primary or secondary cell.
5. A primary cell is a cell that is neither reusable nor rechargeable. The electrochemical reactions stop producing electricity once all of the chemical reagents have been consumed.
6. In contrast, a secondary cell can be recharged using battery charges to regenerate chemical reactions.
7. The zinc-carbon cell (dry Leclanché cell) is a common dry cell with a nominal voltage of 1.5 volts, which is the same as an alkaline cell.
