A Battery is an electrochemical system that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Battery-Cells are the most basic individual component of a battery.
In another words, it can also be defined as :
Battery is an electrochemical device that converts chemical energy into electricity by using a galvanic cell.
We mentioned Galvanic cell. Do you know what is it? A Galvanic cell is a simple device consisting of two electrodes of unlike metals or its compounds (anode and cathode) and an electrolyte (usually acid/alkaline) solution.
I want to clear an ambiguity here. Batteries do not make electricity, they actually store it. It is therefore we can say that a battery is an electrical storage device.
When there is chemical reaction in the
battery, electrical energy is either supplied or stored. In Dry cells, this chemical reaction happens only for a single life. Whereas in rechargeable batteries, this chemical reaction can be repeated many times.
Based on the nature of reversal of chemical reaction, it can be categorized as :
- Primary cell, and
- Secondary cell.
Primary Cell :
When the battery’s chemical reaction is irreversible, it is called a primary cell. In a primary cell, the chemical reaction eats away one of the electrodes, usually the negative electrode. When this happens, the electrode must be replaced or the cell must be discarded.
Secondary Cell :
When the battery’s chemical reaction is reversible, it is called a secondary cell. In a secondary cell, the electrodes and electrolyte are altered by the chemical action. This action takes place when the cell delivers current. A secondary cell may be restored to its original condition by forcing an electric current through it in the direction opposite to that of discharge.

Can I just say what a relief to find someone who actually knows what theyre talking about on the internet. You definitely know how to bring an issue to light and make it important. More people need to read this and understand this side of the story. I cant believe youre not more popular because you definitely have the gift.
Hello there, You’ve done an excellent job. I will certainly digg it and personally recommend to my friends. I’m sure they will be benefited from this website.
you have a great blog here! would you like to make some invite posts on my blog?
Impressive write-up
Those are yours alright! . We at least need to get these people stealing images to start blogging! They probably just did a image search and grabbed them. They look good though!
I am very happy to read this. This is the type of manual that needs to be given and not the accidental misinformation that’s at the other blogs. Appreciate your sharing this greatest doc.
Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!
Good info. Lucky me I reach on your website by accident, I bookmarked it.
The subsequent time I learn a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I do know it was my choice to learn, but I actually thought youd have one thing interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you may fix for those who werent too busy looking for attention.
I haven¦t checked in here for some time as I thought it was getting boring, but the last few posts are good quality so I guess I¦ll add you back to my daily bloglist. You deserve it my friend 🙂
