For the textbook, chapter, and section you specified we found
Electrolysis of several aqueous solutions is carried out using a 9-V battery and pencil leads as electrodes. Because only the electrodes are shown in the videos, it is important to show these still images
or describe how the reactions were performed if students are to make sense of the videos. In each case the anode is on the left and a 9-V battery has been connected to the lead of each of the pencils near the eraser end with an alligator clip.
Textbook Error: Short Circuiting an Electrochemical CellJudith M. Bonicamp and Roy W. Clark Reports a serious error in the electrochemical diagrams in eight, 21st century texts and offers an analogy to electrical potential energy and a diagram to clarify the interrelationships between electromotive force E, reaction quotient Q, and Gibbs free energy G. Bonicamp, Judith M.; Clark, Roy W. J. Chem. Educ.2007, 84, 731.

Lithium Batteries: A Practical Application of Chemical PrinciplesRichard S. Treptow In recent years batteries have emerged in the marketplace that take advantage of the unique properties of lithium. Lithium metal is an attractive choice to serve as a battery anode because it is easily oxidized and it produces an exceptionally high amount of electrical charge per unit-weight. Treptow, Richard S. J. Chem. Educ.2003, 80, 1015.
