The cathode of a lead storage battery is made up of – (1) Zinc (2) Lead (3) Lead oxide (4) Manganese dioxide

1 Answer

Answer :

(2) Lead Explanation: Lead-acid batteries, invented in 1859 by French physicist Gaston Plante, are the oldest type of rechargeable battery. Despite having a very low energy-to-weight ratio and a low energy-to-volume ratio, their ability to supply high surge currents means that the cells maintain a relatively large power weight ratio. These features, along with their low cost, make them attractive for use in motor vehicles to provide the high current required by automobile starter motors.
