Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
To determine whether Congress deciding all cars and trucks must be powered by batteries will solve the pollution problem caused by transportation.
Concept Introduction:
The air pollution is mostly caused by the fossil fuel burning like oil, natural gas, coal and gasoline which gives power to the vehicles and helps in transportation.

It says on the photo to list all the types of batteries that we're using at home. So I've put these five things and googled each voltage, which became my answer on the second/middle column.
The minimum of batteries is three only that is why I've put 1 thing that uses lithium-ion battery, 1 thing that uses alkaline battery, and 3 things that uses dry cell.
Now, what I can't understand is WHAT WOULD I PUT ON THE ELECTROCHEMICAL REACTION?? (what should I put/answer on the last column?)
I can't understand!!!
SUBJECT : GENERAL CHEMISTRY
TOPIC : THERMAL RUNAWAY
1. What are some of the ethical and social considerations that arise from the production, use, and disposal of electronic devices with lithium-ion batteries?
2. Propose a research question related to thermal runaway in electronic devices. Describe how to investigate or study this research question.
3. Evaluate the effectiveness of current safety measures used in the production and disposal of electronic devices with lithium-ion batteries. Suggest alternative measures or improvements that could reduce the risk of thermal runaway.
Both coal and natural gas can be burned to generate electricity. However, burning natural gas produces about half the carbon dioxide emissions as burning coal to provide the same amount of energy. Why is it better for the environment to phase out coal-burning power plants in favor of natural gas-burning power plants?
