What is electrochemistry?
• Electro: – Electricity
• Chemistry:– Science that studies changes in matter
• Electrochemistry:– Using chemical reactions to generate
electricity

The Potato Battery
• An electrochemistry example• Able to generate a maximum of 0.8 V of
electricity• The electrons travel from the copper wire to
the zinc coated nail
+ - 0.8

Problem: LCD clocks require a 1.5 V battery
• How could we generate more electricity?
• Connect multiple potatoes together!• Two types of circuits:– Parallel – Series

In Parallel
• All positive terminals are connected together and all negative terminals are connected together.
• Increases amperage, not voltage

In Series
• Every positive terminal is connected to a different negative terminal.
• Increases voltage, not amperage

• LCD clocks need 1.5 V of electricity• One potato battery generates 0.8 V of
electricity• How should we make our potato clock?
