similar to separating the oxygen and hydrogen in water. When the battery fully charged it is made up of 64% water and 36% sulfuric acid and when the battery is in "charging" state by the alternator or charging source the electricity basically separates the water molecules (hydrogen from oxygen) giving of the hydrogen as bubbles.....sKD

How could a car battery explode?

Auto batteries contain Sulfuric acid and all batteries produce a very small amount of hydrogen gas which is highly volatile. If the battery is overcharged it will produce more hydrogen gas than the vents on the battery can safely release. Any spark can then cause an explosion. Also connecting a jumper cable in reverse can cause the battery to explode.
