In traditional "lead-acid" batteries, the electrodes are lead and lead (IV) oxide. During discharge, both electrodes dissolve in the strong acid electrolyte to form dissolved lead (II) cations. During recharge, these reactions are reversed. Other battery types, with a longer rechargeable life are used for hybrid electric-gasoline cars.

Which group 4A element is used in electrodes in car batteries?
Lead (Pb) is commonly used in electrodes in car batteries as it forms lead-acid batteries, which are known for their reliability and low cost. Lead is a heavy metal that can store and release electrical energy efficiently in this application.
Why are carbon rods used in some batteries?
electrodes
Why is not used in three electrodes in batteries?
it will be useless to use 3 electrodes. IT IS WASTE OF MONEY.Two , three or four electrodes can be used but it only increases the rate of reaction.
What safety precautions should I take when installing batteries - like the kind that are in cars that have around 12V- and an electric motor to my go kart?
A voltage of 12 V - as used in car batteries - is not particularly dangerous. You can even touch the electrodes, though I suggest not to touch BOTH electrodes at once.
What metal is used to make the electrodes in automobile batteries?
Lead is commonly used to make the electrodes in automobile batteries. Lead-acid batteries are the most common type of battery found in cars, and they consist of lead dioxide as the positive electrode and sponge lead as the negative electrode.
What Mineral is mixed with clay it is used to make pencil lead it is also used as an oil for machines parts and as electrodes in batteries?
The mineral mixed with clay to make pencil lead is graphite. Graphite is also used as a lubricant for machine parts and as electrodes in batteries due to its ability to conduct electricity.
Lead is used to make which objects?
Lead is used for - ballast keel of sailboats - in scuba diving weight belts - in small arms ammunition and shotgun pellets - in electrodes in the lead-acid batteries - in car batteries - in glazing bars for stained glass or other multi-lit windows
How can lemon batteries be used to generate electricity?
Lemon batteries can generate electricity by using the acid in the lemon as an electrolyte and the metal in the electrodes as conductors. When the electrodes are inserted into the lemon, a chemical reaction occurs that creates a flow of electrons, generating a small amount of electricity. Multiple lemon batteries can be connected in series to increase the voltage and power output.
What elements are used in car batteries?
Lead.
What happens to used car batteries?
they get recycle
What are the different types of batteries used in an electric car?
Normally Lithium Ion batteries or Lead-Acid batteries.
What is the driving force of the flow of electrons in batteries?
potential difference between electrodes
