What is ordinary dry cell?

Why is a cell referred to as a dry cell?
There is dry cell and wet cell. A dry cell has not fluid around it. A wet cell is surrounded by fluid of some sort, usually acid.
What is the chemical name of dry ice. why is it called dry ice. Is dry ice is same as the ordinary ice?
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide (CO2). It is called dry ice because it does not melt when it heats up, it goes directly from solid to gas. It is NOT the same as ordinary ice, which is of course, solid water. Dry ice is much colder than ordinary ice.
How does number of dry cell affect the strenght of dry cell?
Of each individual dry cell, not at all. If you connect them together in series then their voltages add.
What is the chemical formula of dry ice and ordinary ice?
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide. It has the chemical formula CO2. The correct formula for dry ice( cardice), which is solid carbon dioxide, is CO2.

What kind of electrochemical cell is an ordinary dry cell?
primary cell (chemical cell)
What is the half cell reaction of ordinary dry cell?
An ordinary dry cell is pretty well answered by: Anode: Zn → Zn2+ + 2e- Cathode: 2NH4+ + 2MnO2 + 2e- → Mn2O3 + H2O + 2NH3
What is a wet cell and how is it different than the dry cell batteries that are so common today?
A wet cell is a secondary cell that can be recharged after they had been used up by passing current backwards through them. It is different from the dry cell in that dry cell are not rechargeable.
How a dry cell car battery looks like?
The connections on a dry cell auto battery are totally different than a regular wet cell battery.
Is dry cell means leclanche cell?
no lechlanche cell is not a dry cell.
How are wet and dry cells the same?
A wet cell and a dry cell are the same in that they each have an anode, a cathode and and electrolyte. All three components are different chemically. The anode and the cathode will exhibit a voltage difference when placed in the electically conductive electrolyte. The voltage and reaction between the three parts of the cell are chemical reactions. A wet cell is different from a dry cell in that the electrolyte in the wet cell is a liquid where the so-called dry cell has an electrolyte that is either damp, moist or in a gelatinous form. ( The electrolyte is not actually "dry".) Otherwise the cells are the same. The cell may be a primary cell that is depleted as one of the elements is chemically consumed or the cell may be rechargable by reversing the chemical reaction.

Where is the energy source for a flashlight?
A dry cell; it contains chemical energy.A dry cell; it contains chemical energy.A dry cell; it contains chemical energy.A dry cell; it contains chemical energy.
If you put a dry cell battery in a battery charger what would happen?
The battery could heat up, leak, or explode. The chemical reactions in ordinary batteries are not practically reversible, as in wet-cell batteries or nickel-cadmium types.
Do both wet cells and dry cells work the same way?
No- different materials, different functions. Wet cell batteries are USUALLY storage batteries- they are recharged. Dry cell batteries are USUALLY supply batteries- a chemical reaction produces electrical power. When chemical are used up, the battery stops producing power, and cannot be recharged. The battery in most cars is a wet cell, batteries in most flashlights is a dry cell.
