Make Electricity from
Fruits
Fruit Battery
(Sponsored Project Guide) |

Introduction:
Making electricity from
chemicals is based on the same scientific principles on which
all modern batteries work. You insert copper and zinc electrodes
in a chemical solution (electrolyte) and produce some
electricity from the chemical reaction between your electrodes
and electrolyte. In a
fruit battery, the electrolyte will be a natural fruit, not a
synthetically made chemical. Fruits are safe to handle so all
students can try this project safely. |

Material and
instructions:
This project is one of the most famous
electricity/ Chemistry projects that can be performed successfully by
most students in the age range of 10 to 16. It helps students to learn
about producing electrical energy using chemical energy. Since the same
method is used to get energy from many fruits and chemicals, this
project can have many other names as well. Following are some of the
other names or titles for this project:
- Fruit power or
fruit battery
- Convert
Chemical energy to electrical energy
- Which fruit
produces the most electrical energy?
Materials are easily available as a
kit; however, with the same price or a little more and spending some
time, you can find the materials individually as well. |
