Question

What type of battery is lead storage battery write the anode.And cathode reaction and overall reaction?

Answer 1

heya..!!

here is ua answer:

Lead storage battery is a secondary cell.

Reaction at the anode and cathode when the current is drawn from it (discharge) are as follows :

At anode : Pb(s)+SO4→PbSO4(s)+2e−Pb(s)+SO4→PbSO4(s)+2e−

At cathode : PbO2(s)+4H++SO2−4+2e−|→PbSO4(s)+2H2OPbO2(s)+4H++SO42−+2e−|→PbSO4(s)+2H2O

overall reaction : Pb(s)+PbO2+2H2SO4(nq)→2PbSO4+2H2O(l)

hope it helps...!!
