Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we discuss changing voltage output.A battery's voltage is not a fixed property but can be adjusted through its components. Specifically, altering the materials used for the electrodes impacts the voltage, with more reactive metals creating a higher output. Furthermore, the chemical environment provided by the electrolyte influences the electrode reactions, consequently modifying the cell's voltage. Therefore, both the selection of electrode materials and the electrolyte are key factors in determining the electrical potential of a cell.Don't miss out on subscribing for more educational content tailored to help you succeed in your exams.
