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


Why does electricity flow through salt water?

The salt is ionic and this means that the electricity can flow because if the presence of the charged particles in solution.


Which describes a conductor?

An electrical conductor is a substance in which electrical charge carriers, usually electrons, move easily from atom to atom with the application of voltage. ... In electrical and electronic systems, all conductors comprise solid metals molded into wires or etched onto circuit boards.


Is calcium chloride a good conductor of electricity?

Yes, calcium chloride is a good conductor of electricity when dissolved in water. The dissolved ions in calcium chloride allow the flow of electric current through the solution. However, solid calcium chloride is not a good conductor of electricity because it does not contain free-moving ions.


Does copper sulfate conduct electricity?

Copper sulphate can conduct electricity. However, this will only happen when it is in liquid or gaseous state but not in solid form.

Do all circuits contain electricity?

No, not all circuits contain electricity. A circuit is simply a closed loop through which electricity can flow. Electricity will only flow through a circuit if there is a power source, such as a battery or wall outlet, providing the electrical energy.

What elements allow electricity to pass through?

Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons.A circuit lets electricity flow through it.Conductors allow the easy flow of electrons. Conductors are metal, usually copper or aluminum.Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does.

How electricity flows?

Electricity flows through wires. Negatively charged atoms will jump to positively charged atoms. They all jump really fast and it causes flow. Electricity flows only in A. An open circuit. B. A closed circuit. C. A magnet D. An incomplete circuit


Why do things stop working when you switch them off?

Electricity only works when it can flow all the way around a loop called a circuit. Turning off a switch breaks the circuit, stopping the flow and turning electrical things off. Turning a switch on joins the circuit and makes them work again.


Can electricity flow through a parallel circuit?

'Electricity' is the name given to a branch of science; it is NOT a quantity. So your question should read, 'How does an electric current flow through a parallel circuit?'The answer is that a parallel circuit is made up of two or more individual 'branches'. The sum of the currents flowing through each branch is the value of the current being drawn from the supply by the complete circuit.


An electrical current will always flow?

An electrical current will only flow in a closed loop or circuit where there is a complete path for the electricity to follow. If there is a break in the circuit or an open switch, the current will not flow.


What is a continuous path along which electricity flows is known as an electric what?

Electric current can flow through a continuous path which can also be described as a closed circuit. Conversely, any break or opening in a circuit is called an open circuit. Charges can only flow through a closed circuit.


What are some things about electricity?

It only flows through a closed circuit.


Which circuit element(s) are known as diodes and only allow current to flow through them in one direction?

Diodes are the circuit elements that only allow current to flow through them in one direction.
