When battery contain acid then why you put water in the battery?
The acid in automotive batteries is a sulfuric acid/water solution known commercially as "battery acid". There is about 29 t0 32% sulfuric acid in the solution, the rest is water. The purpose of the water is to allow the solution to conduct electricity by chemical conversion in the cell. As the battery is used the water can evaporate or escape raising the concentration o acid. When this happens the efficiency of the battery is reduced. More water must be added to bring the solution back to the proper ratio of acid and water.
What is the function of battery acid?

Is battery acid a acid or base?
It is an Acid, and when concentrated, around 97%, as in batteries, has a pH under 1, (very strong) which can vary depening on the solution.As the name tells, it is an acid
Is sulfuric acid the same as battery acid?
Well, honey, technically speaking, sulfuric acid is the main component in most car batteries, so yeah, it's a big player in what you might call "battery acid." But if you're asking if they're exactly the same thing, well, not quite. Battery acid usually refers to a diluted form of sulfuric acid used in car batteries, so it's like saying a margarita is the same as straight tequila - similar, but not quite.
Car battery acid alkaline or neutral?
acid
