Contents…Contents… What is a Fruit cell?

How to make a fruit cell.

Science behind it’s working.

Page 3: Fruit cell

What is a fruit cell?What is a fruit cell?A fruit cell is a cell which produces

electricity through citric acid.It is basically made with citrus

fruits.

Page 4: Fruit cell

How is a fruit cell How is a fruit cell made?made?

To make a fruit cell we require… Some citrus fruits Cu and Zn plates Alligator clips Connecting wires LEDs

Page 5: Fruit cell

So now we have gathered all the items lets get started……..

Two incisions are made in the fruits to insert the copper and the zinc plate in the fruits

Page 6: Fruit cell

• The copper and the zinc plates are slotted in the fruit.

• Two fruits or more are connected in series because the battery power is weak in one fruit. 

• Now lets connect the plates using the alligator clips. 

Page 7: Fruit cell

Once the alligator clips are connected to all the plates. Let’s connect the wires with the LED.

Once the setup is completed it results in the glowing of the LED.

The Science The Science behind……behind……

Now how a crook fruit will light an LED? Isn’t it the question impending in your mind?

Well, in that case let’s solve the mystery…..

Page 9: Fruit cell

When the metal touches the acid electrons flow around the circuit to the copper electrode, here copper ions are attracted to the negative electrons and when they meet they are neutralised forming copper metal.

Page 10: Fruit cell

Because Zinc is more reactive than copper, this whole process releases energy, about 1 joule of energy for every coulomb of charge that is moved, which is the same as saying the battery produces about 1 volt. This voltage is related to the difference in reactivity between the two metals you are using, so if you change the metals you will change the voltage.

All those stuff which were stated above were the science behind the gleaming of a simple LED….
