A designer tests simple cells for a low-power digital thermometer. The cells are made under the same conditions.
| Cell | Electrodes | Electrolyte | Voltage in V |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | magnesium and copper | X | 1.8 |
| 2 | zinc and copper | X | 1.1 |
| 3 | magnesium and copper | Y | 1.5 |
| 4 | zinc and copper | Y | 0.9 |
Which statement is a valid conclusion from these results?
Cells 1 and 2 show that changing the electrolyte changes the voltage
Cells 1 and 4 show that changing the electrolyte changes the voltage
Cells 2 and 3 show that changing the metals changes the voltage
Cells 1 and 3 show that changing the electrolyte changes the voltage
