Cell Simple Copper With Zinc
Product Code : LSK-CL-10048
Cell Simple Copper With Zinc (SKU LSK-CL-10048) is a simple voltaic cell: a jar fitted with one zinc plate and one copper plate electrode. When the jar holds an electrolyte, the two metals produce a small voltage that can be shown on a meter, making it a first hands-on example of electrochemistry for school students. Science Lab Supplies, working from Ambala, India, puts this cell on quotations for schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The simple copper-zinc cell is summarised in the rows below. In essence, it is a single jar carrying two plate electrodes, one of zinc and one of copper, that dip into the same liquid; it is the one-container arrangement of a voltaic cell, without the porous pot of a Daniell cell.

Applications and Experiments for the Simple Copper-Zinc Cell
This simple cell lets students see that two different metals in an electrolyte produce an electric current. It also shows the weaknesses of a single-liquid cell, such as falling voltage and gas bubbles on the copper plate, which leads naturally into the Daniell cell and modern batteries.
- Class 8–10 science: chemical effects of electric current, with the current shown on a Galvanometer 30-0-30 mA.
- Class 12 chemistry: comparing a simple cell with a Daniell cell.
- Physics labs: polarisation of a primary cell, tracked on a Voltmeter over several minutes.
- Science clubs: testing different electrolytes and measuring the voltage produced.
If a dilute acid is used as the electrolyte, it is corrosive: wear eye protection and gloves and prepare it only under teacher supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each set comprises the jar with its zinc plate and copper plate electrodes. The electrolyte, connecting leads and a voltmeter or bulb are not included and can be quoted as separate items on the same order, so that every group's cell arrives ready to connect.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Ask for one cell for a demonstration bench or a number of cells for group work. The quotation you get back covers packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and spare electrode plates or other chemistry lab equipment in India can be listed with it.
As an exporter registered with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru, Egypt and Iraq. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). Mention how many groups will build cells when you write via the contact page, or line up cells and meters together in the enquiry cart; for school and government tenders, the lab tender page is the starting point.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is a simple cell different from a Daniell cell?
A simple cell has both electrodes in one liquid, so its voltage drops as gas collects on the copper plate. A Daniell cell separates two solutions with a porous pot to give a steadier output over a practical.
What are the electrodes made of?
One electrode is a zinc plate and the other a copper plate, both fitted to the jar. Zinc acts as the negative electrode and copper as the positive one when the cell is in use.
Who supplies the Cell Simple Copper With Zinc?
The cell is a supplied item from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India. Daniell cells, electrode plates and meters for an electrochemistry bench can be quoted alongside it in one document.
Is the electrolyte supplied?
No. The laboratory prepares its own electrolyte; the set contains the jar and the two plate electrodes. Connecting leads and a meter can be added to the quotation.
