Our Year 9 students carried out an exciting practical activity in the school science lab: constructing an electric cell using orange juice and metals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This activity not only aroused their curiosity but also provided them with valuable hands-on experience in the realm of chemical reactions and electricity production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With enthusiasm and determination, the students carefully halved the oranges and squeezed the juice to create the acidic solution necessary for the experiment. Subsequently, they inserted copper and zinc into the orange juice, ensuring that the metals did not come into contact with each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the cells were assembled, the moment of truth arrived: to test whether they could power the clock with the electricity generated by their orange juice cells!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They connected the clock’s wires to the copper and zinc, and watched in astonishment as the second hand moved.<\/p>\n\n\n
