Interpretation:
The reason for suitability of lithium as anode of a battery is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
There are majorly three types of commercial cells which are as follows:
- Primary cells
- Secondary cells
- Fuel cells
Primary cells are those in which redox reaction occurs once and then they cannot be used again, become dead. Example: Dry cell.
Secondary cells are those in which can be recharged again and again and can be re-used. Example is lead storage battery.
Fuel cells are those in which electrical energy is produced by combustion of fuels.
Answer to Problem 19SSC
Light mass and high capacity to power devices is possible with
Explanation of Solution
Lithium as anode of a battery is advantageous over other secondary cells like lead storage battery cells. There are 2 reasons for it, firstly,
Secondly, it has lowest standard reduction potential among all the metals that is
Therefore, light mass and high capacity to power devices is possible with
Light mass and high capacity to power devices is possible with
