In a lemon experiment why do you have to make sure that two metals are not touching each other?
In a lemon battery experiment, two different metals are needed to create an electrical potential. If the metals touch each other, it creates a short circuit and the electrical current flows directly between the two metals, bypassing the lemon. Separating the two metals allows the lemon juice to act as an electrolyte, facilitating the flow of electrons between the metals.
What else can I help you with?
Do lemon conduct electricity?
Lemon juice is an electrolyte. Electrolytes conduct electricity when in a solution of water
Why are other metals added to stanless steel?
why are other metals added to stainless steel
Which metal forms an amalgam which other metals?
Mercury forms amalgams with other metals.
What metals react with other metals what happens to the valence electrons of the metal atoms?
== == When metals react with other elements, the atoms of the metals give up their valence electrons.
When metals react with other elements do the atoms of the metals gain or lose?
Metals are likely to make anions. So they lose electrons to get a positive charge. The other elements gain electrons and get negatively charged.
Francium reacting with water?
As other alkali metals francium can react with water; but unfortunately we don't have francium for this experiment !
Is a lemon a conductor or a insulator?
it is an insulator!!
What will stop the electrolysis process on any plumbing?
Do not have dissimilar metals touching the plumbing pipe. If it is copper pipe, do not have steel or tin or anything else other than bras or copper or plastic touching the pipe
Do lemon conduct electricity?
Lemon juice is an electrolyte. Electrolytes conduct electricity when in a solution of water
What is the best stomach acid substitute for a science experiment other than hydrochloric acid?
A good stomach acid is LEMON JUICE! I did a science project on it and I got an A+
Why he used gold foil for experiment?
Because Gold has highest ductility and malleability and may be drawn into very thin sheet which is not possible for other metals.
How do you make a working model of an electric current for a science project?
You can do a lemon battery experiment. You insert a galvanized nail in one side of the lemon and on the other side insert a copper wire. Connect a volt meter to the nail and the copper and it will show the presence of an electric current.
How do you hook up a lemon to a battery pack?
It's actually possible to connect a lemon to a battery--especially if that battery is another lemon. While this statement may seem confusing, it really isn't. One popular lemon battery experiment shows students how to create a voltaic battery with a lemon. This type of battery converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Further exploration of this principle will allow you to connect one lemon battery to another lemon battery. One lemon will produce approximately 7/10 of a volt of electricity. And two lemon batteries connected to each other generally create enough energy to power a digital watch.
How do you light a light bulb with a lemon?
You would need two sets of electrodes made from two different metals, preferably from opposite ends of the Periodic Table. You put the electrodes out from each other on the top of the lemon. Then you would connect the lemons together in series, alternating the metals you use. For instance, you would connect the copper electrode of one lemon to the zinc electrode on the next lemon. You might need 6-9 lemons, depending on the voltage. You might do better to use a LED instead of a regular bulb, since they draw less current. You can test your lemon cells using a voltmeter to get the polarity and the amount of voltage.

How are alkali metals different any from other metals?
Alkali metals are very reactive metals.
