Reaction on positive electrode (cathode):
PbSO₄₍s₎ + 2H₂O₍l₎ → 2e⁻ + PbO₂₍s₎ + 4H⁺₍aq₎ + SO₄²⁻₍aq₎.
s - solid.
l - liquid.
aq - dissolve in water.
PbSO4 is converted to Pb at one electrode (anode) and to PbO₂ at the other (cathode). Lead battery can be recharged, during recharging, an external source of energy is used.

How much energy is required to heat 40g of water from -7 degrees Celsius to 108 degrees Celsius (Lf= 335,000J/Kg for ice)
solniwko [45]
The   energy  required  to heat  40g  of water  from -7 c  to 108 c is
1541000  joules

     calculation

Q(heat)=  M( mass)  x c(specific heat capacity) xdelta t( change in temperature)

M=  40g=  40/1000= 0.04 Kg
C=  335,000 j/kg/c
delta T   (    108 --7= 115  c)

Q  is therefore   =  0.04 g x  335000 j/kg/c  x 115 c  = 1541,000  joules
