Answer:
In a lead acid battery, hydrogen is liberated at negative plates.
Explanation:
- A lead acid battery has two plates- positive and negative.
- Whenever a lead acid battery is about to completely charge, hydrogen and oxygen gas is liberated at negative and positive plate respectively.
- This occurs when the current being given is more than the current required to remove the remaining amount of lead sulphate on the plates.
- This excess current leads to the ionization of the electrolyte's water.
- Hydrogen being lighter than air, escapes from the battery.
- As a result, Hydrogen is only released when the charging current exceeds the current resulting in electrolysis.
