    Design and Construction of a Simple Cell Using Lemon.
    (Kabale University, 2024) Turyatunga, Smith
    The purpose of this project was to design and construct a simple cell using lemon. Lemon fruit is made up of a mixture of chemicals that is called an electrolyte. An electrolyte allows charges to flow. There are chemical changes between both the electrodes and the electrolytes. The project was guided by the following objectives: To determine how much electricity in each lemon: To determine how many lemons could be enough to light a bulb This report is based on applied research which aims to solve our problems, to save energy, to protect our environment and encourages us not to use fossil fuels but instead be an ecofriendly human. As Cherry (2018) stated applied research refers to scientific studies and research that seeks to solve practical problems. Based on the findings, this report determines whether the lemon fruit has enough voltage to produce such energy that can light up a mini LED bulb., the average total result of 9 lemons at the range of 2.34 v continues the cycle of electricity meaning no resistance is formed but the range of measuring it is too low meaning the voltage that’s coming out of the fruit is too high for this setting.
