| Introduction:
Chemical energy stored
in different substances can be converted to electrical
energy. This ability is the foundation of design of all
batteries.

Coming soon |
Each battery has two poles
usually made of two different metals. One pole is the positive
pole and the other is the negative pole. Electrons can travel
from negative pole to the positive pole via a conductor such as
a wire. A flow of electrons in a conductor is called electricity
and if large enough, it can be used to make electro magnet,
light up a light bulb or run an electric motor. Inside each
battery there are chemicals that cause such chemical reactions.
These chemicals in general are called electrolytes. We are
wondering if fruits and fruit juices can be used as electrolytes
to make batteries. |

Project
description:
In this project you will perform experiments to make electricity
from a variety of chemicals and fruits. As a part of your
research, you may also compare the electrical voltage that can
be made with different fruits. What do you think? Can you get
more electricity from lemon or potato? |
