In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Container of Lead-Acid Batteries 2. Plates of Lead-Acid Batteries 3. Active Materials. Container of Lead-Acid Batteries: The materials of which the battery containers are made should be resistant to sulphuric acid, should not deform or become porous, or contain impurities deterious to the electrolyte; of these iron and manganese are especially intolerable. [...]

In this article we will discuss about the working of lead-acid battery with the help of diagram. When the sulphuric acid is dissolved, its molecules break up into hydrogen positive ions (2H+) and sulphate negative ions (SO4- -) and move freely. Now if two lead electrodes are immersed in this solution and connected to dc supply mains, the hydrogen ions [...]
