Hey guys it’s Aaron and welcome to Aaron Plays Fun Facts.
First of all, I would love to give thanks to High Efficiency Cooling& Heating company located in Toronto, they are doing an awesome FREE service, which is to collect your used batteries while they do installation or maintenance service at your house, instead of throwing them away in the trash or driving around to the landfill for recycling. Check out their link down below!
In this video, I will explain how batteries work and why we shouldn’t throw them away. First, let’s find out three fun facts about batteries.
Facts about Batteries.
Fact Number 1: The first battery was created by Alessandro Volta in 1798.
Fact Number 2: If we back up to number one, the famous word ‘volt’ (which is an electrical measuring unit for those who don’t know) actually came from Alessandro VOLTA’s last name.
Fact Number 3: We estimate that Americans purchase nearly three billion batteries each year. Imagine the ones that we’re thrown away!
How does battery work?
Now that we know some facts about batteries, let’s learn how battery works. Batteries power our toys and gadgets by converting chemical energy into electrical energy. The opposite ends of a battery, known as the anode and the cathode, generate an electrical circuit that conducts power to an electronic device.
So, in a word, batteries turn chemical energy into electrical energy.
These little containers seeming simple because you just need to arrange the positive and negative side of the battery into your machine or toy to power it. But in fact, batteries are extremely complicated into building and discovering it without it malfunctioning.
To simplified batteries, just imagine that inside the metal skin of the battery, they separated two types of chemicals. Let’s call them chemical positive and chemical negative. We separated the battery equally and filled one half of it with chemical positive and filled the other half with chemical negative.
Say, the electrons in chemical negative and chemical positive wants to flow and circle around each other, but they can’t because there is a wall. If we connect wires to each end, the electrons will flow and power your machine. Unfortunately, at some point your chemicals in the batteries will run out.
Rechargeable batteries consume less natural resources.
There are two types of batteries, rechargeable batteries and disposable batteries.
Did you know that rechargeable batteries consume less non-renewable natural resources overall than disposable batteries? One huge positive of using rechargeable batteries is that due to their ability to recharge, fewer batteries are needed to provide the same amount of energy. This translates to fewer resources being consumed during the manufacturing process. Another benefit of using rechargeable batteries over disposable batteries is the cost savings. Rechargeable batteries save the consumer money due to its reusability.
Improperly disposed batteries contribute to water and air pollution.
Improperly disposed batteries negatively affect human health.
Recycling batteries is easy.
