Question

in some applications nickel-cadmium batteries have been replaced by nickel-zinc batteries a single nickel-cadmium cell has a voltage of 1.30 V. Based on the idfference in the standard reduction potentials of CD2 and ZN2_, what votlage would you estimate a nickel-zinc a battery would produce

Answer 1

Larger nickel–zinc battery systems have been known for over 100 years. Since 2000, development of a stabilized zinc electrode system has made this technology viable and competitive with other commercially available rechargeable battery systems.
