2. A dry cell is an electrochemical cell that is made up of low moisture immobilized electrolytes in the form of a paste that prevents the cell from flowing.
3. We can carry it wherever we want
4. Electrolytes convert chemical energy into electricity thus providing electrical energy to the circuit.
5. Hence a dry cell is called an electrochemical cell.
