Explanation:
Lead storage battery is a secondary cell used in automobiles and invertors. The anode is made up of lead and undergoes oxidation during discharging and cathode is made up of lead oxide and acts as cathode during discharging. The electrolyte used is dilute .
Lead storage battery acts as electrochemical cell while discharging.
Discharging reaction for Anode:
Discharging reaction for Cathode: [tex]PbO_2+4H^++SO_4^{2-}+2e^-\rightarrow PbSO_4+2H_2O[/tex]
Overall cell reaction : [tex]Pb+2SO_4^{2-}+PbO_2+4H^+\rightarrow 2PbSO_4+2H_2O[/tex]
A lead storage battery is an energy storage device. At the anode lead and sulfate ion reacts to produce Lead(II) sulfate and release two electrons.
What are anode and cathode?
In secondary cells or the recharge-discharge cells during recharge, the positive electrode is the anode, while during discharge cathode is the positive electrode.
The anode (lead) of the cell undergoes an oxidation reaction during the discharge, whereas the lead oxide or the cathode undergoes reduction.
The discharging reaction at the anode of the cell is given as,
[tex]\rm Pb + SO_{4}^{2-} \rightarrow PbSO_{4} + 2e^{-}[/tex]
The discharging reaction at the cathode of the cell is given as,
[tex]\rm PbO_{2} + 4H^{+} + SO_{4}^{2-} + 2 e^{-} \rightarrow PbSO_{4} + 2H_{2}O[/tex]
The overall cell reaction is given as,
[tex]\rm Pb + 2SO_{4}^{2-} + PbO_{2} + 4H^{+} \rightarrow 2PbSO_{4} + 2H_{2}O[/tex]
Therefore, the gain and loss of electrons are represented at the cathode and the anode of the cell.
