Question
When a lead storage battery is discharged(a) lead is formed(b) lead sulphate is consumed(c) $\mathrm{SO}_2$ is evolved(d) sulphuric acid is consumed
Step 1
A lead storage battery (also called a lead-acid battery) consists of lead (Pb) as the negative electrode, lead dioxide (PbOâ‚‚) as the positive electrode, and sulfuric acid (Hâ‚‚SOâ‚„) as the electrolyte. Show more…
