What is another name for the Leclanché cell?

The Leclanché cell is indeed commonly referred to as the carbon-zinc cell. This type of electrochemical cell was one of the earliest forms of dry battery and consists of a zinc anode and a carbon rod surrounded by a mixture of ammonium chloride and manganese dioxide as the electrolyte. The designation "carbon-zinc" is derived from the materials used in the cell's construction, where carbon acts as the cathode and zinc serves as the anode.

This terminology reflects the basic structure and materials while providing clarity about its functioning and applications in exothermic reactions. The carbon-zinc cell is generally inexpensive and relatively easy to produce, making it widely used for various applications. Other types of cells mentioned in the options employ different materials and chemistries, leading to varied properties, applications, and performance characteristics, distinct from those of the Leclanché cell.
