al action that takes place in theH2S04 voltaic cell. (Figure 229.) 217 218 BATTERIES As soon as the circuit is closed, the ionized H2SO4 sepa-rates, the H2 going to the Cu electrode and giving up its charge, the 2 H being givenoff as a gas. The S04 goesto the Zn plate, receives thepositive charge… … Figure 229. — A Sulphuric AcidVoltaic Cell. Thus we see that an elec-trical current is sent throughthe wire, that the H2SO± is used up, that ZnSOi is made inits place, and that the Zn strip is eaten up. 254. Polarization. — It was seen above that hydrogen gasis given off at the copper plate. In all…
