Chemical Action
Alessandro Volta Invented the electric cell – voltaic cell The term volt Discovered that electrical potential
was created when dissimilar elements were placed in a chemical.

Chemical ActionDissimilar metals placed in an acid and water solution (electrolyte)This action produces a surplus of electrons and when a load is placed a current will flow. Chemicals are used up therefore cannot be recharged.Primary cell – a cell in which the chemical action cannot be reversed (recharged)

Types of Primary Cells
Dry cells – electrolyte is a paste Zinc-carbon cell Alkaline cell Mercury cell – 5 times more current
than conventional dry cells. Lithium cell Silver oxide cell

Secondary Cell
Can be recharged or restored Car Battery Rechargeable Batteries
Nickel-Cadmium cell Lithium-Ion
Specific Gravity – weight of a liquid as it is compared to water. (electrolyte in a battery)
Hydrometer – used to measure specific gravity.

Series
Voltage accrues Eout = E1+E2+E3+E… Eout = 1.5v + 1.5v +1.5v +1.5v = 6v
Amperage does not increase Iout = I1=I2=I3=I… Iout = 1A

ParallelVoltage is the same as one cell only
Eout = E1=E2=E…
Eout = 1.5v
Amperage accruesIout = I1+I2+I3+I…
Iout = 1A+1A+1A+1A
=4A

Series - Parallel
Treat each area of the circuit separately, then combine them.
Treat these rows as Series
Treat whole thing as Parallel
