An international system of electro-therapeutics : for students, general practitioners, and specialists . Pig. 55.—Leclanche Cell. Fig. 56. in the employment of lead peroxide as a depolarizer lies in the fact thatthe reduced lead is converted into lead sulphate. This accumulates onthe negative pole, and has the effect of largely increasing the internalresistance of the cell. The typical Leclanche cell with its porous cup has a glass jar,molded with a lip, and in it the zinc rod is placed. The carbon plate isusually surmounted by a lead cap cast on the carbon and holding thebinding-post of the positive terminal. The cut exhibits a new connection,designed to avoid corrosion of the lead cap. The size of the zinc rod,which never exceeds half an inch in diameter, indicates larger internalresistance, and shows that the cell is designed to furnish only small cur-rents through considerable external resistance. The amount of energyheld potentially in the cell is represented approximately by the weight GALVANISM. A-267 of the zinc. The excitmg liquid is ammouic chloride. The initialelectro-motive
