Question

There are a variety of batteries that are labeled for you to test and identify. Use a volt meter to measure the voltage of each battery and use this information to answer the questions about the battery. If you switch the polarity of the electrodes, then you will get a negative voltage reading, but the value will be the same. You are also required to bring in your own battery for testing and evaluation. This is an alkaline battery. Voltage: How many voltaic cells are there in this battery? This is a single cell battery. Voltage: What type of cell is this battery? This is a nicad battery. Voltage: How many cells does it have? This is an old style zinc graphite battery. Voltage: How many cells does it have if the EMF for each cell is 1 5V?

Explanation / Answer

Battery 1 : Five (5) Cells

Battery 2: Lithium ions/ Oxides

Battery 2: One (1) Cell

Battery 4: Fifteen (15) cells
