Ocean covers more than 70 percent of the surface of our planet . The vast majority of water on the Earth's surface is saline water on the ocean. The ocean plays a crucial role in regulating the climate by absorbing carbon dioxide. Seawater contains various ions including sodium ion , chloride ion , magnesium sulphate and potassium ion. These ions contribute to the salinity of seawater , which averages around 3.5 percent globally. Seawater conducts electricity due to the presence of dissolved ions , primarily sodium ions and chloride ions. These charged particles enable the flow of electric current , making seawater a good conductor of electricity. In The purpose of this study , to generate the electricity for floating house by using sea water through the concept of voltaic cell.To imitate the properties of sea water, sodium chloride and distilled water is used to create the salt solution. The carbon and zinc electrode are taken out from a dry cell. The carbon electrode will act as cathode while zinc electrode as the anode. Electric current can be carried out from negative terminal to positive terminal through the external circuit. This process change the chemical energy to electrical energy. One of the benefits using the voltaic cell concept is clean energy generation. We can generate electricity through redox reactions without emitting greenhouse gases or pollutants. This makes it a cleaner and more environmentally friendly option for power generation compared to traditional combustion based methods. Other than that , it can provide an immediate power when needed making them suitable for devices that required a quick and reliable energy delivery.
