Some Answers to research questions

What is in the inside of a battery?/ What is the outside of a battery made of?/ how do batteries work? The oustide of the battery is made out of steel. Inside the battery, a cathode mix is placed just inside the battery which carries a natural occuring posotive charge, a seperator paper is then placed inside the battery to keep the cathode from the anode, anode is then placed inside the battery which carry a negative charge, then a brass pin which forms the negative current collecter is inserted into the battery which is then sealed and capped.
