Best Answer

There are alumium batteries . The aluminium-ion battery is conceptually similar to the lithium-ion battery: when the battery is discharged atoms from a metal anode are oxidised, releasing electrons into the external circuit. When recharged, the electrons are driven back to the anode.

Why would recycling batteries have a greater environmental impact than drink cans?

The batteries contain toxic chemical that can eventually leech out into the soil. Aluminum cans will be Chemically stable in a Landfill. Also Aluminum can be recycled into new products fairly easily and cheaper than making new Aluminum from Bauxite (Aluminum Ore). So recycling both is a good idea!

Why does foil give power to batteries to light a light bulb?

Aluminum foil does not give power to batteries to light a light bulb. The common batteries that we use in flashlights and portable electrical/electronic devices, like the "D" cells, "C" cells, "AA" and "AAA" cells, are made with a zinc can. This zinc outer container for the battery has two jobs. It acts as a housing to contain the electrolyte, and reacts with the electrolyte to create voltage. There isn't any aluminum involved. The actual chemical reactions involved in the generation of voltage in the zinc-carbon or zinc-manganese (the "alkaline") cell can by found by surfing the link to our friends at Wikipedia. They're down with all this. And you can be to.
