Why is a section of the battery referred to as a lead-acid cell?

Alkaline batteries are named for their highly alkaline electrolyte solution which is potassium hydroxide (aka caustic potash, aka "traditional" lye) mixed with water.
Lead-Acid batteries are similarly named in-part after their highly acidic electrolyte solution consisting of 35% sulfuric acid and 65% water.

∙ 12y agoA battery is made up of cells connected together to provide the required voltage. 'Lead-acid' refers to the materials used to manufacture the electrodes and electrolyte. In the case of a lead-acid cell, a fully-charged cell has plates of lead and lead oxide, and the electrolyte is a dilute sulphuric acid.

Would a battery made out of lemon and two metals be a wet cell or a dry cell battery?
wet cell battery
Which is better a 6 cell battery or a 9 cell battery?
"Better" doesn't really say enough in this situation. I'm assuming this is about a laptop that can be fitted with either a 6-cell or a 9-cell battery - in which case the 9-cell will let you run longer on battery, but will usually stick out a bit and make the laptop both bigger and heavier. So 9-cell is good for runtime, but poor for carrying it around. Your choice.
Difference between tubular battery and lead acid cell?
Well, tubular tells you that it's tube shaped, like a section of pipe. Batterytells you that it has more than one cell.Lead acid tells you that what chemistry it is - lead-acid - and cell tells you that there's only one section to it. Knowing the number of celss and the chemistry means that you can figure out which voltage it should have when fully charged etc.Now, to make things maybe a bit more complicated, you could use lead-acid cells to build a tubular battery.
What circuit would be inside a torch?
you have to collect a battery(cell), battery case, 4 wires, and as many bulbs as you ewould like. now link them together. alexia age 12A very good answer Alexia.Here's how I would answer it.Connect, in series, a cell or battery, a bulb with a voltage rating which corresponds to the cell/battery voltage, and, optionally, a switch.
What is meant by a cell has a voltage of 1.5volt?
No. The potential DIFFERENCE of a battery (or, more accurately, a dry cell) is 1.5 V.
What is another name for a battery?
another name for a battery is a cell a cell is one battery and a battery is a two or more cells or batteries
Where can you find a 18 volt super cell masterforce replacement battery?
Look for an 18V Worx NiCd battery. It is the exact same thing, and they may have them at Menards in the garden tools section.
Would a battery made out of lemon and two metals be a wet cell or a dry cell battery?
wet cell battery
Is car battery is the same with regular battery like EverReady?
No, an automobile battery is a wet cell battery not a dry cell battery.
What are some examples of a dry cell battery and a wet cell battery?
A dry cell battery is full of solid or paste-like electrolytes. One example of a dry cell is anode, which is a zinc metal. A wet cell battery is full of liquid electrolytes. One example of a liquid cell is an old car battery.
What is a 6 volt dry cell battery?
if it is any think over 1 volt it is not a cell battery it is just a 6 volt battery if you had a 1 volt then it would be a cell battery
What are types of secondary cells?
a cell is one element of a battery, now commonly referred to also as a battery. Technically, of all the common "batteries", only the car battery and the small 9 v one are properly called batteries,, because they are made up of a number of cells in series. All the rest (AAA, AA, B, C etc) are cells. This distinction has become unused, and they are all called batteries. A primary cell/battery is one that cannot be recharged. A secondary cell/battery is one that can be recharged.
How a dry cell car battery looks like?
The connections on a dry cell auto battery are totally different than a regular wet cell battery.
Is a lead acid car battery the same as a 9 volt alkaline battery?
No, a lead acid battery is a wet cell battery and a 9 volt alkaline battery is a dry cell battery.
The cell infected by a virus is referred to as the?
Host cell.
What does cell do in an electric circuit?
the cell is the battery.
What could cause the battery to drain when the car is off?
Dead cell in the battery or something is on pulling power from the battery. If it is a dead cell the battery must be replaced.
