Does an orange make a better battery than a potato?

i dont know some one outside of me please improve this answer it is for my science project

As this is for a science project, it would be wrong to simply give one answer. In fact, there are several things to test when deciding which is the best fruit or vegetable for a battery.

First, take a potato and an orange. Use different types of electrodes - try to get hold of steel, copper, zinc and aluminum. With each pair of electrodes, measure the voltage they produce. Then measure the current they produce. Finally, measure how long each one will operate.

Put the results into a table and then you are well placed to make your own evaluation of the data. The experiments won't take long to do and following the guide above, you will have enough information to get a real answer.

This depends on the concentration of the salt solution.

If the water potential of the salt solution is lower (more concentrated) than the cell sap of the potato cells, water would move out of the potato cells in the salt solution, decreasing the size of the potato strip.

Will you lose weight eating baked potato?

  • No, not usually. If they are fried or roasted then no. Boiled potatoes are better but all potatoes, however, contain a lot of starch, which the body can use for energy very easily. Therefore, if you have too many potatoes that energy will be easily converted to fat for storage, so don't go pigging out on potatoes.
  • Yes, potatoes are great for a diet. Most people think they're too fattening and/or starchy, but that's just a myth (in my opinion). Potatoes are fairly low-calorie and have more potassium than the average banana.
  • No, potatoes are not considered a good food for weight loss. They are high carbohydrate and relatively high in calories. There are much better carbohydrate and calories bargains to be had. If you must include potatoes in your weight loss regime, use them sparingly or save them for the occasional treat.
  • No, potatoes are not good "diet food" if you have any degree of insulin resistance. This is because potatoes (a root vegetable) are high in carbohydrates, especially when compared to green (or non root) vegetables. Many overweight people have a degree of insulin resistance, often without being aware of it, and anyone who is obese is already significantly insulin resistant. There are much better carbohydrate bargains to be had than potatoes. Here is an example of the carbohydrate content of potato:
  1. Approx 59-63 carbohydrates in 1 large (3 - 4¼" diameter) baked potato with skin.
  2. Approx 37 carbohydrates in 1 medium (2¼ - 3¼" diameter) baked potato with skin
  3. Approx 30-34 carbohydrates in 1 medium (2¼ - 3¼" diameter) red baked potato with skin
  4. Approx 27- 30 carbohydrates in 1 small (1¾ - 2½" diameter) baked potato with skin.
  5. Approx 60 carbohydrates in 1 large (3 - 4¼" diameter) peeled, old, boiled potato.
  6. Approx 33 carbohydrates in 1 medium (2¼ - 3¼" diameter) peeled, old, boiled potato
  7. Approx 25 carbohydrates in 1 small (1¾ - 2½" diameter) peeled, old, boiled potato
  8. Approx 20 carbohydrates in 4 oz or 114g of new, boiled, potatoes.

How many nutrients are in potatoes?

The potato contains vitamins

and minerals

, as well as an assortment of phytochemicals

, such ascarotenoids

and natural phenols. Chlorogenic acid

constitutes up to 90% of the potato tuber natural phenols. Others found in potatoes are 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid (crypto-chlorogenic acid), 5-O-caffeoylquinic

(neo-chlorogenic acid), 3,4-dicaffeoylquinic and 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acids.[58]

A medium-size 150 g (5.3 oz) potato with the skin provides 27 mg of vitamin C

(45% of the Daily Value (DV)), 620 mg of potassium

(18% of DV), 0.2 mg vitamin B6

(10% of DV) and trace amounts of thiamin

, riboflavin

, folate

, niacin

, magnesium

,phosphorus

, iron

, and zinc

. The fiber content of a potato with skin (2 g) is equivalent to that of many whole grain breads, pastas, and cereals.

In terms of nutrition, the potato is best known for its carbohydrate

content (approximately 26 grams in a medium potato). The predominant form of this carbohydrate is starch

. A small but significant portion of this starch is resistant to digestion byenzymes

in the stomach

and small intestine

, and so reaches the large intestine

essentially intact. Thisresistant starch

is considered to have similar physiological effects and health benefits as fiber

: It provides bulk, offers protection against colon cancer

, improves glucose

tolerance and insulin sensitivity, lowers plasma cholesterol andtriglyceride

concentrations, increases satiety, and possibly even reduces fat storage.[59]

[60]

[61]

The amount of resistant starch in potatoes depends much on preparation methods. Cooking and then cooling potatoes significantly increases resistant starch. For example, cooked potato starch

contains about 7% resistant starch, which increases to about 13% upon cooling.[62]
