Is a car battery a wet cell or dry cell?

A car battery is a wet cell. Only recently have dry cells been introduced, but your typical car battery is a wet lead storage battery.


What are batteries made of metal or steel?

It may be that the external casing of many batteries is steel, but the action of the batter does not depend on the casing. It is commonly said that to make a battery, you need two dissimilar metals and an electrolyte. There is a popular demonstration where one constructs a battery with two pieces of metal stabbed into a lemon. An alkaline battery uses zinc and manganese dioxide with potassium hydroxide as the electrolyte. Another typical battery is the Lead Acid found in most cars that uses lead, lead oxide and an electrolyte of sulfuric acid. There is also the Edison Battery, made of nickel oxide-hydroxide and iron with potassium hydroxide as it's electrolyte. There are many other examples.

What happens if you have no water in your car battery?

I assume we're talking about the typical wet-cell battery. Usually it is filled with a mixture of acid and water. If the water is gone the battery is damaged and cannot be fixed by refilling it with acid and water.

What are indications that lead acid battery is fully charged?

There are two measures, cell voltage and specific gravity of the electrolyte. Cell voltage is the simplest to measure. For most automotive, flooded cell (having liquid electrolyte) batteries, 12.6 volts is considered full charge, although it is typical to have 13 volts or a bit over. The specific gravity of a fully charged battery, measured with a hydrometer, is 1.265.


Each cell in a typical car battery has a little over what volts?

Each cell in a typical car battery has a little over 1.5 volts. Eight cells per battery equals the battery's total voltage.


What acid does a car battery have?

Typical Lead acid batteries use sulfuric acid while most Hybrid High Voltage batteries will use some form of either Sodium or Potassium Hydroxide as an electrolyte which is not acid but a basic.Battery acid is sulfuric acid, H2SO4. It is present as a 33% (6 molar) aqueous solution (dissolved in water)Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) Sulfuric Acid 35% and distilled water 65 % this mixture is called electrolyteIn a Lead Acid Car Battery, the acid used is Sulphuric Acid (H2SO4).
