An electric cell is a device, which converts chemical energy into electrical energy. It has two terminals, which are made up of metal: one terminal is positive, while the other one is negative. When the two terminals are connected to an electrical device, electric current flows through it.

Answer:

a device that delivers an electric current as the result of a chemical reaction

Explanation:

A battery is a device consisting of one or more electrochemical cells with external connections for powering electrical devices such as flashlights, mobile phones, and electric cars. When a battery is supplying electric power, its positive terminal is the cathode and its negative terminal is the anode. The terminal marked negative is the source of electrons that will flow through an external electric circuit to the positive terminal. When a battery is connected to an external electric load, a redox reaction converts high-energy reactants to lower-energy products, and the energy difference is delivered to the external circuit as electrical energy. The term "battery" specifically referred to a device composed of multiple cells, however the usage has evolved to include devices composed of a single cell.

Difference:

The difference between a cell and a battery is that a cell is a single unit that converts chemical energy into electrical energy, and a battery is a collection of cells. According to expert Mary Bellis, each cell contains two electrodes and an electrolyte, a substance that reacts chemically with each electrode, generating an electrical current.
