Car battery acid consists of Hydrochloric acid and Sulphuric acid.
Cells in a normal car 12v battery are composed of lead and sulfuric acid.
Distilled water and sulfuric acid.
Car batteries are filled with sulfuric acid, not water. The battery fluids get "topped up" with distilled water if they get low.
lead plates,acid,water and the outer plastic case
No, it is battery acid corrosion caused by leaking fumes. Clean it off with water and baking soda which will neutralize the acid.
water... at least in my battery, i have to fill it up every now and again.. Water and sulfuric acid
Itdoesn't The stuff that builds up on the battery Poles is the result of acid. rinse it of with hot water and cover it with a Little petroleum jelly to stop it from recurring
The acid will leak out making the battery less effective and causing everything around it to get eaten up.
I believe it is Sulfuric Acid and Distilled Water Its actually lead and sulfuric acid
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.
No; batteries that use "acetic acid" (Vinegar) have not been made in an extremely long time and modern batteries would more than likely have a bad reaction to its introduction. You should use Distilled Water only to top off a car battery, it is not suggested you add more acid to the battery as it works on a 'gravity' scale (requires a meter to get it right).
It is very corrosive and will cause any metal it comes in contact with to rust.
