From which terminal of a battery are electrons pushed?

electrons come from the negative terminal, then goes around the complete circuit (clockwise) and comes back to the positive terminal. hope that helps!


Can you make a salt water battery?

Positive hydrogen ions will move to the negative terminal of the battery, and negative oxygen ions will move to the positive terminal. If the terminals are iron, the oxygen and iron atoms will react to create Iron(III) Oxide (Ferral Oxide), or rust. The stronger the battery, the faster the positive terminal will rust. If the terminals are anything other than iron, the hydrogen and oxygen atoms will simply separate, causing the water to bubble.


Is a zinc anode acts the terminal?

No. It seems Zinc would always act as the negative terminal. Anode and Cathode are the terms used when we connect an external electrical source to the device. If positive terminal of an external battery is connected to the electrode then that electrode is named as ANODE. If negative terminal is connected then it is named as CATHODE. In case of chargable device, while discharging say P acts as negative terminal. Then while charging this negative terminal would be the anode. So if the device is a chargable one and Zn acts as negative terminal while delivering current to the external load, then the same zn would acts as anode while charging.


What is one way you can store chemical energy.?

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be saved in various forms. One way to store it is in the form of chemical energy in a battery. When connected in a circuit, a battery can produce electricity. If you look at a battery, it will have two ends -- a positive terminal and a negative terminal. If you connect the two terminals with wire, a circuit is formed. Electrons will flow through the wire and a current of electricity is produced. Inside the battery, a reaction between the chemicals takes place. But reaction takes place only if there is a flow of electrons. Batteries can be stored for a long time and still work because the chemical process doesn't start until the electrons flow from the negative to the positive terminals through a circuit


What form of energy flows through a copper wire connecting the two ends of battery?

Electrical Energy. When a copper wire is connected to two ends of battery, the electrons on the -ve terminal (with excess of electrons) move to +ve terminal (electron deficit terminal) to maintain an equlilbrium, hence the energy created by these movement of 'electrons' is called 'electrical' energy
