Electricity in dry cells is generated through a chemical reaction between the electrolyte and the electrodes within the cell. This reaction results in the production of electrons that flow through an external circuit, creating an electric current. The electrodes typically consist of a cathode (positive terminal) and an anode (negative terminal), which are separated by an electrolyte that allows the flow of ions necessary for the reaction to occur.

Dry cells are not actually dry Comment on this statement give reason?

The statement that dry cells are not actually dry is accurate because, despite their name, they contain a moist electrolyte that facilitates the chemical reactions necessary for generating electricity. In dry cells, the electrolyte is usually in a paste form, which minimizes leakage and enhances portability compared to wet cells. This paste allows for a controlled release of energy while still retaining some moisture, hence the term "dry" is somewhat misleading.


Why do balloons stick to cats?

It really has nothing to do with the cat or the balloon, at least not directly. When there is enough static electricity present, a balloon will stick to a cat's fur. The static electricity is usually generated by lightly rubbing the balloon on the cat's body, and may be enhanced if the air is dry (such as in dry heat in a house).

How electrostatic electricity generated?

Either by friction on a non-conductor, or by the influence of two conductors approaching each other. An insulator is often used as it is a simple way of doing it, and will hold the static and not simply conduct it away as it is generated. Most friction-generated static requires a dry day, as moisture in the air will also bleed away the static. See Wikipedia.org/whimshurst or Wikipedia.org/vandegraaf to see machines using the two basic types of generating static.

Why you have to make sure of your hands are dry when i am using electrical equipment?

Ensuring that your hands are dry when using electrical equipment is important to prevent the risk of electric shock. Water is a good conductor of electricity and can increase the chances of current passing through your body. Dry hands reduce the conductivity of electricity, helping to keep you safe while working with electrical devices.
