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.
