Because it is 29 to 32% sulfuric acid.
My husband said it is caused by the vapor from the battery acid. It is the vapor of the battery acid leaking out of the battery, so the above answer is correct.
Car battery acid goes everywhere; acid can burn the hands if the person is not careful. A battery that is low on acid will not hold a charge as well. Most new car batteries have "cells" which hold the acids, so it's likely one cell is leaking.
I have a 2001 Intrepid and my battery kept dying, so 2 tow trucks later I found out that the battery that was in my car had over heated and battery acid was leaking. After that all I had to do was replace the battery and everything is well. Hope this helps!
I took some battery acid out of my car, because i had the same question, and poured a little on the stump outside. Well at first it didn't work so i tried some more and it worked.! So for anyone who has stumps outside they need to get rid of, i suggest getting battery acid from any car, vehicle or any big amount and it should gone.
battery acid is a mixture of sulphuric acid and Lead sulphate. Because of the high lead content battery acid should be used for nothing else but that. Lead is a commulative poison (is retained by the body so it builds up) and should be handled only in controlled applications.
stearic acid is more strong i think so..........
Sulfuric acid is used because it combines with water to produce electrolytes. Inside a car battery, these electrolytes cover the battery plates, and are used to power the crankshaft when the car and engine is first started, so that the crankshaft can start to turn and the process of supplying fuel & air to the engine can begin. Hope that helps.
yes, hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, so it is a strong electrolyte.
it is a battery made from from citric fruits and how it works is the citric acid is like the citric acid in a battery so technicley its a battery
Helps the battery to hold charge for a long period of time by charging the cells of the battery. So always check if you need to top off the battery acid fluid in your battery if its not servicable battery then you cant really check it you will need a special tool that you hook up to it that will read for you if battery still has good or bad charge.
depends if its dry lead acid battery then it has to be replaced because all acid dryed out and no longer will help battery hold charge, if wet lead acid battery same thing all liquid acid dryed out but in some batteries like car they can be topped off for longer life usage, but if its fully dryed out possibly its going to have very low charge because it has been so dry so x ammound of time. Good question.
NO! never remove the acid caps! EVER! only if it is a battery to something like an ATV or dirt bike you would take the acids caps off and only to refill the acid. if it is a normal car battery just leave them on. if you are talking about the (+) and (-) battery TERMINAL caps then on some vehicles you have to take them off so that the charger can come in contact with the battery posts.
