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

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.


Potato battery or lemon battery?

You can make a battery out of both a lemon or a potato - if you want to see how just do a net search on "potato battery" or lemon battery. 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.


What foods make electricity?

Foods do not contain electricity. However, certain fruits like potatoes and lemons can be used to create a simple battery when combined with other materials like copper and zinc. This is known as a vegetable battery, but it does not generate electricity from the food itself.


How does the potato battery work?

A potato battery works by harnessing the chemical reaction between the metals (like copper and zinc) and the electrolyte in the potato to generate electricity. The potato acts as a bridge between the metals, allowing the flow of electrons and creating a circuit. The chemical reaction between the metals and the electrolyte produces a small electrical current that can power a simple electronic device like an LED light.

What is the purpose of the lemon battery?

The use of a lemon battery is a demonstration of what is necessary for a battery to operate. All you need to make a battery is two dissimilar metals and acid. There is not much practical application of the lemon battery. They are not cost efficient for the amount of energy produced. The same with a potato battery potato's have more power than lemons and are easier to make.
