We will be using a lemon to provide our "Electrolyte" for our Battery. Here is the chemical formula for "citric acid" in lemons: C₆H₈O₇ Although filled with "non-metals" it still forms an electrolyte. Why would it still be able to form both a positive and negative? (HINT: One of the non-metals in its formula is an excpetion) 3. Which of the following elements would make a good “anode”. Explain Why.
