Question

Write the anode and cathode reactions occur in the operation of a lead storage battery. Mention the electrolyte used in the battery.

Answer 1

When diluted sulfuric acid electrolyte is added to the cells, the battery is activated, and ions can line up along the positive and negative regions of the cell. Forming a conductive path between the cathode and the anode allows the electrons to travel to the cathode and discharge the battery.

Answer 2

When diluted sulfuric acid electrolyte is added to the cells, the battery is activated, and ions can line up along the positive and negative regions of the cell forming a conductive path between the anode and the cathode.
