Abstract
A simple, inexpensive experiment using fruit, a voltmeter, and wires made of various metals allows children to discover many electrochemical principles including: circuits, series connections, the chemical nature of batteries, electrodes, and potential/voltage. Because the experiment uses familiar, portable, and safe materials, it can be conducted in nearly any location and everyone involved can participate.
