How are wet and dry cells the same?

A wet cell and a dry cell are the same in that they each have an anode, a cathode and and electrolyte. All three components are different chemically. The anode and the cathode will exhibit a voltage difference when placed in the electically conductive electrolyte. The voltage and reaction between the three parts of the cell are chemical reactions. A wet cell is different from a dry cell in that the electrolyte in the wet cell is a liquid where the so-called dry cell has an electrolyte that is either damp, moist or in a gelatinous form. ( The electrolyte is not actually "dry".) Otherwise the cells are the same. The cell may be a primary cell that is depleted as one of the elements is chemically consumed or the cell may be rechargable by reversing the chemical reaction.

What is a wet cell and how is it different than the dry cell batteries that are so common today?

A wet cell is a secondary cell that can be recharged after they had been used up by passing current backwards through them. It is different from the dry cell in that dry cell are not rechargeable.


How are dry cell and wet cell batteries the same?

How Dry Cell Batteries and Wet Cell Batteries are the SameThey both convert energy "stored" in chemical compounds into electrical energy.


Can a dry cell battery be recharged?

Some wet cells can be recharged (e.g. lead acid cell) some wet cells can't be recharged (e.g. gravity cell). Some dry cells can be recharged (e.g. NiMH cell) some wet cells can't be recharged (e.g. carbon zinc cell). It depends on the cell chemistry not the wet/dry construction. Also any wet cell can be made into a dry cell by absorbing the wet electrolyte into something and making a damp paste electrolyte.

Function of dry or wet cells?

A 'wet' cell uses a conducting liquid called an electrolyte; a 'dry cell uses a conducting gel called an electrolyte. So, really, a 'dry' cell is simply a non-spillable wet cell! They both store electrical engergy for use later on.

Does a powered wheelchair have a wet cell or dry cell battery?

Most powered wheelchairs currently use dry cell (also known as gel cell) batteries, and most likely will be shipped with gel cell batteries when ordered. However, you should be able to use either wet cell or dry cell batteries for any scooter as long as you use the correct size (usually one of the following: U1, 22NF, 24, or 27).
