YOUR idiotic design continuously consumes both electrodes whether or not a circuit exists. There are NO good reasons for designing a battery your way. Jerry
From: sorin on 15 Apr 2010 04:18 I think its better to revise your definition for idiotic design. 1. Every incipient battery ever designed (Volta or Daniell) were used for occasionally researches or for continuously application, but in this case there were persons trained to change the electrodes and the solutions. Mainly, the employers of phone and telegraphy companies were trained to ensure the functionality of Daniel cells every day. 2. The purpose of proposed experiment is not to make a commercial battery; of course maybe in the future with other compounds this think will be possible and it is not the case to discuss here this aspect. The purpose of experiment was to demonstrate that an anode and cathode oxidation generates an electric current. 3. For science it is very important when a ,,case does not fit with entire edifice of an accepted theory. When more ,,cases appear in a theory, this is a sign that a change is necessary. Every time in science an individual has an idea and the mass later or sooner accept or deny that idea. The science is not made by persons who push a button and hear the radio and they think they understand electricity (as example). I make the activity of posting messages only for having a proof that a new theory exists and it is not accepted. I have time to wait that change

FALSE!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniell_cell > In fact a variant of the > daniell cell I presume you mean the "gravity cell" I think it's better for your practice to build a gravity cell, and to leave it over the night without a consumer connected between anode and cathode and try to measure in the second day the potential and current into circuit... You will see that your battery is gone... So, the same mechanism governs the idiotic design of proposed battery and daniell cell. In one case there is a Zn metal consumption and Cu metal generation, but in solution Zn species are increased and Cu is diminished. In other case there is Zn and Fe consumption and increasing of both species in solution.

Both electrodes experience continuous oxidation in strong sulfuric acid in the complete absence of any current, as evidenced by the continuous evolution of hydrogen bubbles from both plates even while unconnected by a wire. But by connecting the plates with a wire, you INCREASE the rate of oxidation from the negative electrode (i.e. the electrode from which you are withdrawing electrons) and DECREASE the rate of oxidation from the positive electrode (i.e. the electrode to which you are feeding electrons.) So what happens in your so-called "experiment" is in complete accord with standard theory. > 3. For science it is very important when a ,,case does not fit with > entire edifice of an accepted theory. Your stupid experiment does no such thing. All it does is show that iron and zinc dissolve in sulfuric acid. > When more ,,cases appear in a > theory, this is a sign that a change is necessary.
