An English physicist and chemist Michael Faraday deduced to fundamental laws of electrolysis. He segregated his laws in two parts. We know these as the First Law and Second Law of Electrolysis. Faraday’s First Law … Read more
Definition of Electric Conductor There are some materials through which the electric current can flow. We call these materials as conductors of electricity. Also, we also call these materials as electric conductors. Types of Electric … Read more
Before discussing the ionization or dissociation of electrolytes let us know what are electrolytes. What are electrolytes? There are some substances which can not exist in the molecular form in water. When we dissolve this … Read more
What is Electrolyte? When we dissolve some specific compounds in water, the compounds split up in positive and negative ions. Due to the presence of ions these solutions can carry electric current. We call these … Read more
What is the Battery Cell? The electric battery cell is a device. It has two electrodes, immersed in the electrolyte. A battery cell produces electricity. The electricity in the battery is due to chemical reactions … Read more
A lead acid battery is a rechargeable battery. So it is a secondary battery. We name this battery such because it uses lead metal for its electrode. Also, it uses dilute sulfuric acid as its … Read more
A lead acid battery cell consists of three main components. These are two electrodes and the electrolyte. The electrodes are of rectangular plate shape. For this reason, we call positive electrodes as positive plates and … Read more
Avoid Overcharging We should avoid overcharging of the lead-acid battery. Because of overcharging, may make the lead sulfate harden. Hence, it becomes difficult to convert it to the active materials. Hence, the specific gravity of … Read more
The VRLA battery means the Valve Regulated Lead Acid Battery. This type of battery is sealed from outside. So there is no provision of topping up water or acid during its lifespan. It is a … Read more
