Leclanche Cell 1.5V Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Leclanche Cell 1.5V

Product Code : SCL-EAE-14619

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Leclanche Cell 1.5V (Product ID: 14619) as part of its electrical and electronics range. It is a 1.5 V zinc-carbon (Leclanché-type) dry cell for school circuit and electrochemistry work.

Quick Answer

The zinc container is the negative electrode, a carbon rod packed in manganese dioxide is the positive, and ammonium chloride paste is the electrolyte. It gives about 1.5 V DC and has clearly marked + and – terminals. Under a continuous heavy load the voltage falls because of polarisation, so it suits intermittent use and low-current circuits.
