This document discusses different types of electrochemical cells. An electrochemical cell converts stored chemical energy into electrical energy and is an energy storage device. Some key electrochemical cells discussed include Volta's cell, the Leclanche cell, the dry cell, nickel cadmium cells, and button cells. Volta's cell, invented in 1799, uses a chemical reaction between zinc, copper, and sulfuric acid to produce electricity. The Leclanche cell, invented in 1866, contains a carbon cathode, manganese dioxide, and a zinc anode to produce a current. Dry cells, invented in 1888, contain zinc chloride, ammonium chloride, and carbon rods to produce a current for devices like flashlights.
