How the batteries work

Basic batteries have two terminals, positif (+) and negatif (-), but in a AA, C or D battery, the terminals are the sides. Batteries work by the electrons which are formed on the negative side of the battery; it works by a chemical reaction in the battery, which produces the electrons. The electrons go to a cord which goes from the negative terminals to the positive terminals. So if the chemical reaction is not active, the battery does not lose its energy. That's why batteries can work for a very long time.
