In 1749, Benjamin Franklin first used the term "battery" to describe a set of linked he used capacitors for his experiments with electricity. These capacitors were panels of glass coated with metal on each surface. These capacitors were charged with a static generator and discharged by touching metal to their electrode. Linking them together in a "battery" gave a stronger discharge.
Okay so i found this on the internet, I'm not so sure that it's right. So my apologies if I'm wrong.
Carbon monoxide is a reducing agent commonly used to obtain manganese from manganese dioxide. When heated with manganese dioxide, carbon monoxide reduces the dioxide to yield manganese and carbon dioxide.
The manganese dioxide is an inorganic compound.
Zinc + Manganese Dioxide → Zinc Oxide + Manganese Oxide
A standard dry cell battery is a zinc can filled with a paste of zinc chloride and ammonium chloride. At the centre is a graphite rod surrounded by a paste of manganese dioxide.

Manganese dioxide (MnO2) contains the elements manganese and oxygen.
= Manganese and Water
Manganese dioxide is itself a compound with formula = MnO2
Manganese dioxide is insoluble in water.
Manganese is a metal. It is not soluble in water.
Manganese and oxygen
Yes: An oxide ion has a charge of -2. Two of them have a combined charge of -4, which is exactly neutralized by a manganese (IV) cation.
