Interpretation:
The reason for lead storage battery to not produce the current by lowering the amount of
Concept introduction:
A lead storage battery is a rechargeable battery. Lead storage batteries have average power density and great response time. These batteries are mainly affected by the temperature.
Answer to Problem 49A
The concentration of
Explanation of Solution
The sulfuric acid breaks in to positive ion
The reactions which occur during discharging at the both electrode are given as:
Reaction at cathode
Reaction at anode
Overall reaction is given as
The electron flow through the load and battery gets discharged. During the discharging process, the amount of diluted sulfuric acid decreases and due to which the potential difference of the cell is also decreases.
During the discharging process, sulphuric acid is decreases and as a result of which potential difference decreases. Hence, current is not produces.
