Would this produce a useable galvanic cell?
Top Electrode: Lithium
Electrolyte: Sodium Chloride
Bottom Electrode: Zinc
The cell would be heated to between 801C ( melting point of salt ) and 907C ( boiling point of zinc ), all 3 components would be in the liquid phase.
The cell would be highly insulated to prevent heat loss.
The electrode potential for Lithium is −3.0401 and Zinc is −0.7628.
Would this cell have a voltage of ( −3.0401 - −0.7628) = 2.27 Volts?
Would the salt, when molten, form chemical compounds with the electrodes ( ZnCl, NaZn, LiZn ? ), that would degrade the cell?
Would this cell be rechargeable?
What metals could be used as terminal electrodes that would not be dissolved by the lithium and zinc.
Thank you for your input, and please excuse my limited chemistry knowledge.
