Is Daniell cell a fuel cell?

In: Technology [Edit categories]

Answer:

The Daniell cell (Daniel cell) was invented in 1836 by John Frederic Daniell, a British chemist and meteorologist, and consisted of a copper pot filled with a copper sulfate solution, in which was immersed an unglazed earthenware container filled with sulfuric acid and a zinc electrode. As such it is more akin to a battery than a fuel cell.
