Dive into the fascinating world of electrochemistry, exploring redox reactions crucial for battery technology. Learn how oxidation and reduction processes work, with zinc losing electrons to form zinc ions and copper ions gaining electrons to create copper. Understand the structure and function of batteries, including types such as lead, nickel-cadmium, alkaline, and lithium. Discover the significance of salt bridges and porous disks in maintaining charge neutrality. This overview will cover essential concepts found in the "World of Chemistry" by Zumdahl et al.

One Cell of a Lead Battery Zumdahl, Zumdahl, DeCoste, World of Chemistry2002, page 595
The First Battery Alessandro Volta (1745 – 1827) Generate electricity by putting a layer of cardboard soaked in brine between discs of copper and zinc – a voltaic cell. When he made a ‘pile’ of these cells, he increased the amount of electricity generated. This was the first battery – a collection of cells. Zinc disc Copper disc Newmark, CHEMISTRY, 1993, page 46
