=== Alessandro Volta === [[File:Volta présente son invention à Napoléon (cropped).jpg|thumb|Alessandro Volta demonstrates his battery to Napoleon.]] Alessandro Volta, a contemporary physicist, believed that the effect was explicable not by any vital force but rather it was the presence of two different metals that was generating the electricity. Volta demonstrated his theory by creating the first chemical electric battery.<ref>Edwin James Houston, "Electricity in Everyday Life", Chapter XXII. P. F. Collier & Son, 1905.</ref> Despite their differences in opinion, Volta named the phenomenon of the chemical generation of electricity "Galvanism" after Galvani.<ref name=":1" />
