Answer:
You will make a strong battery.
Explanation:
Batteries are made of two metals with different electron affinities. What does the phrase “electron affinity” mean and how does this affinity affect the voltage of the battery?
Electron affinity: The strength of the ability to capture electrons in its outermost orbit.
The greater the difference in metal affinities, the greater the voltage. That means, if you pair Copper with Silver, the difference between their electron affinity would be (0.80-0.34) or, 0.46 and You will make a strong battery.
