First , i don't know much about chemistry and physics. I'm just a graphic designer but i have this question in my mind. I'm sorry if this question is too basic and use 'generic' language.
As iI know a battery is an example of a closed circuit where it can then producedproduce electricity , electronelectrons will flow from negative pole to positive. A chemistry representation of this battery is for example iI got this link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TvYlJ06MXo&feature=related
soSo it's a closed circuit. Where where one of the side will release (lose) electron while another side will gain electronelectrons. That's how the circular process will occureoccur (the liquid act as a connector or bridge to close the circuit) . My question is whatWhat if we 'open' the circuit , so i mean separate the liquid.?
Of course the chain process will stop , right ? But what about if we can create somekindsome kind of instrument where iI can supply electron to the liquid and onnon the other side using another tool/instrument to grab electronelectrons from another liquid. Does it make any sense , that we can still produce electricity using open circuit? Am i wrong ? Sorry for this basic question. I just need some enlightment :-)
