Lets start:
1. Insert a zinc plate and a copper plate
into a lemon.
2. Connect a light bulb to
the two metal plates
with connecting wires.

3. What happens to the light bulb? Explain
briefly. (Hint: Chemical reactions occur
between the metal plates and the lemonjuice.)
Activity 1 (Cont)Activity 1 (Cont)
Lemon voltaic cellLemon voltaic cell
The light bulb is lit. Since chemical reactions
occur between the plates and the lemon juice, a
voltage is set up in the closed circuit.Therefore an electric current flows through the
plates, lemon and light bulb.
