A cell is a device which stores electrical power, the energy stored in the form of chemical energy which is then converted into electrical energy with the help of chemical reactions in order to create the flow of electron.<\/p>\n<p>The Battery of a cell has three main components.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Annode (Negative side of the battery)<\/li>\n<li>Cathode (Positive side of the battery)<\/li>\n<li>Electrolyte (A substance which reacts with the annode and cathode in order to create current flow)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Connecting batteries in parallel<\/h3>\n<p><img
