DATE: NAME: SECTION/GROUP LABORATORY TA Ru 46 Pd 49 In S 14.82 79 s 148 10 POST-LAB: LABORATORY 9 I. Which vegetable or fruit makes the best battery and why o md tre apple and the lemmonThis Te because of the electrochemiehry. Electrical curvents flow better through a substance with low resictance and wovse thyoush a high veeistance his can e explaired hyough Ohris Law which is TElp, hence the hiaher the resistance the less cuvyent lows iven a constant voltage 2. What is the effect of temperature on the potential of your vegetable or fruit and why? boratery s I Potato versus Pickie: The Better Food Battery 141

Explanation / Answer

Since the first question has been answered , let me help you put with the next one .

Ans 2 :

The temperature affects the potential of the potato battery but not directly , indirectly.

Increasing the temperature , increases the resistance of the vegetable , due to which voltage decreases.

The resistance is inversely proportional to the current as we already know , so increasing the resistance , decreases the potential and vice versa.
