Concept introduction:

Lead storage battery is a device used to store energy. In a lead storage battery, the anode consists of lead and the cathode consists of lead oxide.

The moles of a given substance can be calculated as follows:

$\text{Moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

The density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume and is represented as follows:

$\text{Density =}\frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$.
