A potato clock runs on the natural electrolytes given off by a potato the same way a battery lemon , banana , or Gatorade would .
Potatoes contain high levels of electrolytes such as potassium and phosphorus, which can conduct electricity. When a potato is used as a battery, the electrolytes within the potato allow for the flow of electrons between the electrodes, creating an electrical current.
Since you can make many potato chips out of one potato, obviously a whole potato has more mass than one potato chip.

Potato is also used for making batteries. So obviously, it is a good conductor.
about 0.5 volts per potato (big one)
It depends on size of potato, but usually you can get at least 4-6 eyes on one potato.
One small potato weighing approx. 170 gm have 134 calories. One medium potato weighing approx. 213 gm have 168 calories. One large potato weighing approx. 369 gm have 292 calories.

a little less than one volt will be produced with each potato
too many
Many salts are electrolytes but not all; also exist electrolytes which are not salts.
