The Voltaic Pile consisted of discs of copper and zinc separated by discs of paper or cardboard (soaked in salt water). Attached to the top and bottom of this "Pile" was a copper wire. When Volta closed the circuit, electricity flowed through the pile.

Did Alessandro Volta make the first battery?
Yes
What important discovery did Alessandro Volta make?
Allassandra Volta invented the first chemical cell battery, which was originally called a voltaic pile.
What contribution did alessandro Volta make to science?
Alessandro Volta was an Italian physicist (1745 - 1827) who invented the first electric battery (also known as the voltaic pile battery) in 1799. His work is still remembered today through the use of his family name Volta, which is used in the electrical term Volt.
How many times did Alessandro Volta try and make the battery and fail?
17 times.
Can a battery store energy?
Well, let's see. Can you use the battery to light a lightbulb ? Can you use the battery to run a motor ? Can you use the battery to play an iPod, a cellphone, or a portable DVD player ? Can you use a battery to turn over a gasoline engine and make it start ? Can you use a battery to run an electric car ? All of these need energy to work. I guess they must all get it from the battery.
What did Allessandro Volta make and when did he make it?
the first battery or voltaic pille and made it in the 1800
When did alessandro volta make the first battery?
Yesterday!
Did Alessandro Volta make the first battery?

What materials did Alessandro Volta use to make the battery?
The voltaic cell, or the first battery, is composed of two electrodes: one made of zinc and the other made of copper. The electrolyte is either sulfuric acid or saltwater brine.
What battery related experiment did volta conduct?
Allesandro Volta made an alternating stack of silver coins and leather discs soaked in a strong salt solution to make a battery of cells. It is known as Volta's pile. You can do the same today using coins and kitchen paper and you can generate enough electrical current to make a Light emitting diode (LED)glow.
What effect did it make on people's lives from Alessandro Volta's discovery?
Well there are a lot of effects like we wouldn't have electric toys, we wouldn't have remotes for TV {television} and lots more things if Alessandro Volta didn't invent the battery we wouldn't have half the things in the world.
When did Alessandro Volta make the batteries?
Yesterday!
Why was the first battery invented?
to make electricity
