Why one more negative plate than positive in lead acid battery?
Wiki User
∙ 10y ago
The number of negative plates in a cell is always more than one of number of positive plates so that end plates at both sides of the group remain negative.

What is the use of battery acid in battery?
It's function is to provide a 'path' for electrons to flow between the positive and negative terminals. Without the acid, the plates attached to the terminals would simply be surrounded by air - which would not conduct electricity.
Are crystals in the urine negative or positive?
Crystals in the urine are probably uric acid, although there are other possibilities such as oxalic acid. Crystals are not negative or positive, they are neutral. An ionic compound is composed of both positive and negative ions, which add up to a neutral compound.
Positive ions from a base and negative ions from an acid form a what?
A salt
Is nitric acid a positive or negative ion?
Neither. No substance on its own on is an ion. Nitric acid is electrically neutral. When dissolved in water, nitric acid breaks apart, releasing both positive hydronium ions and negative nitrate ions.
What is an example of a negative ion?
A positive ion is an ion with no negative charges.
What is the Chemical composition of battery?
the positive plate is Pb the negative is PbO2 and the acid is H2SO4.
What is the name of the battery positive and negative plates in a typical lead acid battery when the battery is in a charged condition?
anode (negative) cathode (positive) Source: www.bdbatteries.com
What part of a cars battery is made from lead peroxide?
The positive plate of a (charged) lead/acid battery.
What could happen if you are charging your battery and put the negative on the positive and positive on the negative?
It could explode, getting battery acid all over you and anyone else nearby.
Name the composition of the battery negative and positive plates in a typical lead acid battery?
Its all a load of poo.
What four components of a lead acid battery?
The components of lead acid batteries include: * The outer case, or housing. * Plates [Positive and Negative]. * Intercell connectors. * Terminals [Positive and Negative]. * Electrolyte [Sulphuric Acid].
Is the positive connector on a Lead-acid battery white?
The positive connector on a lead acid battery is frequently not white. In the United States, the wire that leads to it is usually red. The black wire leads to the negative terminal. The positive terminal on the battery is always indicated by a plus, +, sign. The Negative terminal is indicated by a minus, -, sign. The negative terminal is usually attached to the body of the car. (Cars have a negative ground, except for 1935-1948 Fords.) The positive connector is usually attached to the solenoid and generator. So check the wire that comes from the battery to the solenoid. That is positive. Check to make sure it is connected +.
Which materials used as paste in tubular positive plate of Lead acid Industrial Battery?
lead oxide 70% & Red Lead 30%
What is a component of a battery?
The negative electrode supplies electrons to the external circuit (or load) during discharge. In a fully charged lead-acid storage battery the negative electrode is composed of sponge lead (Pb). The positive electrode accepts electrons from the load during discharge. In a fully charged lead-acid battery the positive electrode is composed of lead dioxide (PbO2 ). It should be noted that the electrodes in a battery must be of dissimilar materials or the cell will not be able to develop an electrical potential and thus conduct electrical current. The electrolyte completes the internal circuit in the battery by supplying ions to the positive and negative electrodes. Dilute sulfuric acid (H2 SO4 ) is the electrolyte in lead-acid batteries. In a fully charged lead-acid battery, the electrolyte is approximately 25% sulfuric acid and 75% water.
How lead acid batteries work?
A lead acid battery works by using different positive and negative plates with grids that sit together in electrolytes produced by diluted sulfuric acid. This converts the electric energy into potential chemical energy, and then back again.A 12 voltlead acid battery is actually made up of six identical 2 volt cells. Each cell contains lead plates of different compositions sitting in dilute sulphuric acid. Lead dioxide plates (linked to the positive terminal of the battery) react with the acid to form lead sulphate giving up electrons (leaving the plate positive). The pure lead plates (linked to the negative terminal of the battery) react with the sulphate ions to also form lead sulphate. The pure lead plates therefore supply two positive charges and so are left negative. The passage of electons from the lead oxide plates to the pure lead plates is the current of electricity generated by the cell which can be used.
Are acid fast bacteria gram positive or negative?
it is positive
