Can the terminal voltage of a battery be zero?

OpenStudy (shayaan_mustafa):

No, Terminal voltage of a battery can't be zero. For example, if my mobile's battery is at low charge. It is showing only one point of charge on screen, but there will be no fluctuation on its screen, all the other features like audio, video, display will remain same unless it will become fully out of charge. Charge could be zero but the voltage can't be zero. Regards, Read my Profile. :D

If the battery is "dead" it can surely be zero.

OpenStudy (shayaan_mustafa):

no. but it can't, terminal voltage approaches to zero but not in practical life.
