The voltaic cell, or the first battery, is composed of two electrodes: one made of zinc and the other made of copper. The electrolyte is either sulfuric acid or saltwater brine.

Allesandro Volta made an alternating stack of silver coins and leather discs soaked in a strong salt solution to make a battery of cells. It is known as Volta's pile. You can do the same today using coins and kitchen paper and you can generate enough electrical current to make a Light emitting diode (LED)glow.

When was the battery discovered?

Although an early form of battery may have been used in antiquity, the modern development of batteries started with the Voltaic pile, invented by the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta in 1800. The widespread use of batteries has created many environmental concerns, such as toxic metal pollution.Many reclamation companies recycle batteries to reduce the number of batteries going into landfills.Early batteries were used for experimental purposes. He based his works on another Italian doctor named Luigi Galvini. Galvani discovered electricity. Alessandro based his works on his experiments. Though, Volta and Galvani were rivals at heart. They strongly disagreed, and so did their children.i think it was Isaac newton but I'm not 100% sure
