Alessandro Volta, Penemu Baterai

Sumber: Wikipedia

Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta atau Alessandro Volta, tercatat sebagai
penemu baterai pertama kali. Volta lahir di Como, Italia pada tanggal 18 Februari 1745.

Volta merupakan seorang fisikawan dan pertama kali dikenal karena mengembangkan baterai
pada tahun 1800. Dan atas temuan ini, satuan beda potensial listrik dinamakan “volt.”

Tahun 1776 sampai dengan 1777, Volta menemukan metana dengan mengumpulkan gas di
rawa-rawa serta melakukan percobaan pembakaran metana oleh percikan listrik di dalam
wadah tertutup. Pada tahun 1800, baterai yang dibuat oleh Volta dikreditkan sebagai sel
elektrokimia pertama.

Volta pensiun di tahun 1819 dan meninggal pada 5 Maret 1827. Volta dimakamkan di
Camnago Volta. Sebuah museum di Como, Gedung Voltian, telah dibangun untuk
menghormati Volta dan di dalamnya terdapat beberapa peralatan asli yang ia digunakan
untuk melakukan percobaan.

Sekarang baterai bisa kita temui dan memiliki manfaat bagi kehidupan sehari-hari. Penemuan
baterai sangat berguna dan mempengaruhi perkembangan teknologi. Tidak terbayang kan jika
segala perangkat yang membutuhkan listrik harus tersambung dengan kabel?

Alessandro Volta, the founder of the batteries

Wikipedia

Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta or alesperandro Volta, recorded as the first
batteries of the first time. Volta was born in Como, Italy on February 18th,1745.

Volta contains a physicist and first known for developing battery in 1800 and for this
discovery, the potential of the electricity is the electricity of electricity called "Volt

In 1776 s to 1777, Volta found methane by gathering gas in the swamp swamp and performed
methane fires by the electric cosmic inside the closed recepscong. In 1800, the battery was
created by Volta was recreded as the first electrochemical cells.

Volta retirement in 1819 and died on March 5,1827, Volta was buried in camnago Volta. A
museum in Como, voltian building, has been built to honour Volta and in it there are some of
the original equipment he used to conduct experiments.

Now batteries can meet and have merits for everyday life. The battery discovery is useful and
affect technological development. It's not all that s been called if any device needs electricity
to connect with the cable?

Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta ( Italia: [alesˈsandro ˈvɔlta] ; 18 Februari 1745 - 5
Maret 1827) adalah seorang ahli fisika , kimiawan , dan perintis listrik dankekuatan
Italia [2] [3] [4] yang dikreditkan sebagai penemu baterai listrik dan penemumetana . Dia
menemukan tumpukan Voltapada 1799, dan melaporkan hasil eksperimennya pada 1800 dalam
sebuah surat dua bagian kepada Presiden Royal Society . [5] [6] Dengan penemuan ini, Volta
membuktikan bahwa listrik dapat dihasilkan secara kimiawi dan menghilangkan teori umum bahwa
listrik hanya dihasilkan oleh makhluk hidup. Penemuan Volta memicu banyak kegembiraan ilmiah
dan memimpin orang lain untuk melakukan percobaan serupa yang akhirnya mengarah pada
pengembangan bidang elektrokimia .

Volta juga menarik kekaguman dari Napoleon Bonaparte untuk penemuannya, dan diundang
ke Institut Perancis untuk menunjukkan penemuannya kepada para anggota Institut.Volta
menikmati kedekatan dengan kaisar sepanjang hidupnya dan dia dianugerahi banyak
penghargaan olehnya. [1] Volta memegang kursi fisika eksperimental di Universitas
Pavia selama hampir 40 tahun dan secara luas diidolakan oleh murid-muridnya. [1]
Terlepas dari keberhasilan profesionalnya, Volta cenderung menjadi orang yang cenderung
ke kehidupan rumah tangga dan ini lebih jelas di tahun-tahun berikutnya. Pada saat ini ia
cenderung hidup terpencil dari kehidupan publik dan lebih banyak demi keluarganya sampai
kematiannya pada tahun 1827 akibat serangkaian penyakit yang dimulai pada tahun
1823. [1] Satuan SI dari potensi listrik dinamai untuk menghormatinya sebagai volt .
Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta (Italian: [alesˈsandro ˈvɔlta]; 18 February 1745 – 5
March 1827) was an Italian physicist, chemist, and pioneer of electricityand power[2][3][4] who is
credited as the inventor of the electric battery and the discoverer of methane. He invented the Voltaic
pile in 1799, and reported the results of his experiments in 1800 in a two-part letter to the President of
the Royal Society.[5][6] With this invention Volta proved that electricity could be generated
chemically and debunked the prevalent theory that electricity was generated solely by living beings.
Volta's invention sparked a great amount of scientific excitement and led others to conduct similar
experiments which eventually led to the development of the field of electrochemistry.[6]

Volta also drew admiration from Napoleon Bonaparte for his invention, and was invited to
the Institute of France to demonstrate his invention to the members of the Institute. Volta
enjoyed a certain amount of closeness with the emperor throughout his life and he was
conferred numerous honours by him.[1]Volta held the chair of experimental physics at
the University of Pavia for nearly 40 years and was widely idolised by his students.[1]
Despite his professional success, Volta tended to be a person inclined towards domestic life
and this was more apparent in his later years. At this time he tended to live secluded from
public life and more for the sake of his family until his eventual death in 1827 from a series
of illnesses which began in 1823.[1] The SI unit of electric potential is named in his honour as
the volt.
