A substance that is produced as a lead-acid storage battery generates an electric current is
A)Pb.
B)PbSO₄.
C)PbO₂.
D)H₂SO₄.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The lead-acid storage battery generates an electric current by transforming chemical energy into electrical energy through oxidation and reduction reactions that take place between the electrodes and the electrolyte. During battery discharge; PbSO₄ is formed as lead and lead dioxide electrodes react with sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) electrolyte. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it is a substance that is produced as a lead-acid storage battery generates an electric current.
