Question

An electric cell is a device that converts which form of energy into electrical energy?

Options

• Nuclear energy into electrical energy

• Thermal energy into electrical energy

• Mechanical energy into electrical energy

• Chemical energy into electrical energy

Answer 1

An electric cell works through chemical reactions within the electrolyte that maintain a potential difference between the electrodes. These chemical reactions are the source of energy conversion, converting stored chemical energy into electrical energy that can drive current through an external circuit.
