Fiftieth Anniversary: Anniversary Issue on Storage Batteries

Abstract
The effect of stress on the electrode potentials of silver and gold has been measured. Tension renders these metals cathodic in aqueous solutions of their corresponding salts. Compression produces changes in the opposite direction. These changes are proportional to the applied load. Quinhydrone and ferrous‐ferric electrodes are not affected by stress.
