* A "dry-cell" battery is essentially comprised of a metal electrode or graphite rod (elemental carbon) surrounded by a moist electrolyte paste enclosed in a metal cylinder as shown below. * In the most common type of dry cell battery, the cathode is composed of a form of elemental carbon called graphite, which serves as a solid support for the reduction half-reaction. * At the center of each dry cell battery is a rod called a cathode, which is generally made of metal or graphite and is surrounded by an electrolyte paste. The cathode and electrolyte paste are wrapped in paper or cardboard.

How can a dry cell produce electrical energy?
A "dry" cell is actually a misnomer. The electrolyte is actually a moist paste, with enough liquid in it to make the electrochemistry operate exactly the same as a wet cell. The practical difference between a dry cell and a wet cell is that the moist paste electrolyte of the dry cell will not spill out when the cell is turned over like the liquid electrolyte of the wet cell does. This makes manufacturing and transportation of ready to use dry cells possible, while wet cells must be manufactured and shipped without the liquid electrolyte and are filled at the point of sale after installation.
