Are V5 batteries dry or wet cell batteries?
Wet cells are full of liquid, like your car battery. There’s also a battery called a gel cell, which is kind of in-between.
Depends on temperature as one of the factors… no?
I don’t think you do ?
No, it’s just what form the electrolyte in the cells is. “dry cells” are actually “moist cells” as they are filled with a slightly damp paste rather than an acid solution. But there must be a ion transport system within the cell to support the chemical reaction, and ions cannot generally travel through solid materials, only liquids. There is a newer wet cell called a “sodium nickel chloride cell” which you must heat to nearly 500°F to melt the sodium salt first, then it works as a wet cell. Below 500°, the sodium salt is solid and it doesn’t work.
