A lead-acid 12-volt battery typically consists of six cells. Each cell has a nominal voltage of about 2 volts, so when combined, they produce the standard 12 volts. Each cell contains lead dioxide (positive plate), sponge lead (negative plate), and an electrolyte solution of sulfuric acid and water.
It depends on what the 6 cells are, but the battery voltage is just 6 times the cell voltage. In a car battery (lead-acid cells) - 12V In a dry-battery (zinc-carbon cells) - 9V
AnswerAccording to WikiPedia (http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rechargeable_battery), the nominal cell voltage of a Lead Acid wet-cell battery is 2.1 volts, this implies there are 6 cells in a 12 volt Lead Acid wet-cell battery.
A 12 volt automotive battery has six cells.
A 6 volt wet battery has 3 cells. A 6 volt dry battery has 4 cells.
Twelve 2-volt cells (lead-acid like a car battery) or sixteen 1.5-volt cells will make 24 volts. Also two car batteries in series make 24 v.
6 cells, each one 1.5 volts :D
No, a lead acid battery is a wet cell battery and a 9 volt alkaline battery is a dry cell battery.
Depends on the number of cells, and the cell chemistry.
6 @ 1.5v each The 9 volt battery is a true battery, containing six cells of 1.5 volts each. Most storage devices that we call batteries(i.e. D-cell, AA-cell, AAA-cell) are not batteries, but cells.
No! You need fewer cells for six volts. Most 9 volt batteries have six 1.5 volt cells, but a six volt battery has four 1.5 volt cells. In theory you could open the battery up and install a tap at the fourth cell, but that is pretty hard to do.
The familiar 1.5-volt zinc-carbon AAA, AA, C, and D cells, and the familiar 1.2-volt alkalines in the same sizes, are each a single cell.
A 9 volt battery is stronger than a 1.5 volt battery because it has a higher voltage. The higher voltage allows the 9 volt battery to power more demanding devices and last longer than a 1.5 volt battery.
