Now you can show everyone that electrical energy or electricity can be made from air and vinegar. After all, vinegar are freely available everywhere. Battery is a device that converts chemical energy directly to electrical energy.It consists of a number of voltaic cells; each voltaic cell consists of twoà half-cellsconnected in series by a conductive electrolyte containing anions and cations. One half-cell includes electrolyte and the electrode to whichà anionsà (negatively charged ions) migrate, i. e. , theà anodeà or negative electrode; the other half-cell includes electrolyte and the electrode to whichà cationsà (positively charged ions) migrate, i. e. , the cathodeà or po sitive electrode. In theà redoxà reaction that powers the battery, cations are reduced (electrons are added) at the cathode, while anions are oxidized (electrons are removed) at the anode.The electrodes do not touch each other but are electrically connected by theà electrolyte. Some cells use two half-cells with different electrolytes. A separator between half-cells allows ions to flow, but prevents mixing of the electrolytes. Vinegar is a solution of acetic acid and water. Acids donate H+ ions into a solution. The concentration of these ions is what determines whether a solution is a strong electrolyte (conductor) or a weak one. Since vinegar has a low concentration of acetic acid(about 5%) it only has a pH of only ~2. 4 and so is a weak acid.Review of Related Literature According to Doctor Sergey stated that vinegar have lots of electronic magnet cells that can because electricity will small megabytes. During the experimentation, the researchers found out that 4 pieces of calamodins are enough to light a certain bulb. It is also found out that a coin which is hot copper and copper wires are not the appropriate materials in making the experiment. Instead of the materials mentioned used the copper coin and alligator wire. The galvanized nail also matter in lightning the bulb. Use the 1. inches galvanized nail to balanced the flow of the current. Statement of the Problem The researchers aimed to answer the following: 1. How much amount of vinegar that can make the light emitting diode bulb light? 2. Can vinegar bean alternative battery? Significance of the Study This activity is done by the researcher with an important purpose. This activity is launched solely for the Fourth Year High school students of Surigao Education Center. Scope and Limitations This study focused only on commercial vinegar as an alternative source of energy. Definition of Terms Battery ââ¬â a device consisting of one or moreà electrochemical cellsà that convert stored chemicalà energyà into electrical energy. * Vinegar ââ¬â a liquid substance consisting mainly ofà acetic acidà (CH3CO2H) andà water, the acetic acid being produced through theà fermentationà ofà ethanol byà acetic acid bacteria. * Electricity ââ¬â is the set of physical phenomena associated with the presence and flow ofà electric charge. * Acids ââ¬â is a substance which reacts with aà base * Electric Source ââ¬â aà physical propertyà ofà matterà that causes it to experience aà forceà when near other electrically charged matter. Cat ion ââ¬â the ion in an electrolyzed solution that migrates to the cathode;à broadlyà :à a positively charged ion * Anion ââ¬â the ion in an electrolyzed solution that migrates to the anode;à broadlyà :à a negatively charged ion | | * Anode ââ¬â the electrode of an electrochemical cell at which oxidation occurs: as * Cathode ââ¬â à the electrode of an electrochemical cell at which reduction occurs: * Current ââ¬â a flow of electricity * Voltage ââ¬â electric potential or potential difference expressed inà volts * Galvanized Nail ââ¬â Galvanizedà nails are a special type ofà nailà used in construction.They have undergone a special galvanizationà process, which involves covering them with aà zincà coating in order to form a protective barrier. This barrier also works as aà sacrificial anode, which means the coating will dissolve before the metal inside does, if the barrier itself becomes damaged. * Copper Wire ââ¬â Copperà has been used inà electric wiringà since the invention of theà electromagnetà and theà telegraphà in the 1820s. The invention of theà telep honeà in 1876 created further demand for copper wire as an electrical conductor. CHAPTER II METHODOLOGY Research DesignThe descriptive and experimental design was used in this study.

On the second trial, they prepared 400ml but again it does not work. By the third trial, with the amount of 800ml of vinegar, it only produced a little amount of light on the led bulb. On their last trial, they tried to use more vinegar with the amount of 1000ml, and then it already made the led bulb produced great light. CHAPTER IV SUMMARY, FINDINGS, CONCLUSION AND RECOMENDATIONSIn this chapter the researchers will be giving the summary of th e findings of their study. The conclusions on the different problems that arose and to the recommendations on the kinds of improvement their readers can do in the near future. Summary With the use of vinegar it is proven effective when the copper wire and galvanized nail is inserted in it. Based on the observation of the researchers through experimentation it was proven that Vinegar can be an alternative battery and can be a good source of electricity and further justified based on the result of the study.Findings Based on the experiment conducted, the following were the findings of the study: 1. With the amount of 1000ml of vinegar, it can make the led bulb light with the use also of galvanized nail and copper wire 2. Vinegar contains small amounts of acetic acid that can make the led bulb light Conclusions Based on the findings the researchers have conducted, the researchers therefore conclude that vinegar can be an alternative battery and a good example of producing light.With th e galvanized nail and copper wire as the negative and positive the two components shouldnââ¬â¢t be attach with other with the flow of electricity there should only be one direction Recommendations The experiment is easy, you can spend lesser. This is recommended to all the people. By this study, a lot of people can get and get idea how to save money, and energy at home. Someday, vinegar will be a source of electricity. The researchers also recommend this to the following: * Students ââ¬â this can help them to be their guide anf for them to try something new and develop their skills in investigatory. Teachers ââ¬â to take this as an example to the students for them to encourage themselves to discover other kinds of alternative battery.
