What is the chemical formula for electricty?

Electricity is not a chemical and it does not have a chemical formula. Electric current consists of moving electrons; static electricity consists of unmoving electrons.


What is the Composition of electric fan and its element?

An electric fan is not a chemical category at all, but an article of manufacture that can contain many chemical compounds and/or elements.


What is electric current current?

The correct term for the flow of electricity is current. Current is the number of electrons flowing per second in a circuit. The unit of electrical current flow is called the ampere. When 6.28 billion electrons pass a given point, this is called 1 coulomb. 1 coulomb per second is equal to 1 amp of current. Current flow is measured with an ammeter.


Does a magnet have electrons?

An electron is a charged particle and as such it is surrounded by an electric field. A magnet is in general not charged so it will not form an electric field. It will, however, form a magnetic field. In case your question is what an electric field is made of, then the answer is (virtual) photons, which are the mediators for the electromagnetic force.


What role do electrons play in magnetism?

Magnetism is produced through electric currents. In the case of a permanent magnet, it is the electrons circling around the atomic nucleus that produces the magnetism (more atoms have one orientation than the opposite orientation).Magnetism is produced through electric currents.

Electrochemistry is the study of chemical reactions that occur due to electric charges. The most notable and ubiquitous application is the battery.


The attraction between a positive metal ion and the electrons surrounding it is an?

Metals can be thought of as a lattice of metal ions surrounded by electrons. Again the force of attraction is electrostatic. These electrons are delocalised and metals get their conductiity from thir movement under an applied electric field. Positive metal ions in chemical compounds are surrounded by negativelly charged anions. The force between the oppositely charged ions is electrostatic.

What kind of energy is stored in a battery can be used to produce electric current?

In most cases, chemical energy stored in the battery produces the electric current. Rechargeable batteries are capable of taking electric currents and using them to reverse the chemical reactions, thus gaining more chemical energy that can be used readily.


How a substances gets electric charge?

basically metals get charged by getting extra electrons or by missing them. baut certain substances get there charges by a physical phenomenon ,like friction ,heating,or any chemical reactions , it all results in electron transfers, and the substance get charged.
