If we categorize types of batteries as based on the nature of reversal of chemical reaction in it, it can be categorized into two basic categories: Primary cell, and Secondary cell. Primary Cell In a primary cell, the chemical reaction eats away one of the electrodes, usually the negative electrode. When this happens, the electrode […]
