Good question, do some more research to that, my best guess is yes, because rotten food is more acidic, which would give more of an electric charge.

What is the importance of potato to make a battery?

Question: Can you make a potato battery? Answer: Yes , usally it would take a galvanized nail or a penny. All you will need is a potato zinc copper and a wire. The battery will not produce enough electrical current to power a house, but maybe a small flashkight or a miniature led.Using ordinary hook-up electrical wire, you can use the potato to create a voltaic cell, which will power a VERY small bulb. A side note here about voltage & current. This process will produce less than 1.5 volts DC (AA/AAA battery). However, producing 1.5 volts does not necessarily produce enough current to make the lamp actually power up to full use.


What is in a potato that makes it a good conductor of electricity?

In science we have been conducting an experiment to see which of the fruits/vegetables creates a larger flow of electrons- for us it was the potato so it may make a better battery than the lemon. u make it by putting a penny in a lemon and a nail on different sides, then use a battery meter to see how much electricity the object has.
