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.

Artemon [7]
Answer:
             3.2 g of O₂

Solution:
             This reaction is for the formation of Potassium Superoxide, The reaction is as follow,

                                           K  +  O₂     →     KO₂

First let us confirm that either the given amount of Potassium produces the given amount of Potassium oxide or not,
So,
As,
                39.098 g (1 mole) K produced  =  71.098 g of K₂O
So,
                          3.91 g of K will produce  =  X g of K₂O

Solving for X,
                      X  =  (3.91 g × 71.098 g) ÷ 39.098

                      X  =  7.11 g of K₂O

Hence, it is confirmed that we have selected the right equation,
So,
As,
                     39.098 g of K required  =  32 g of O₂
So,
                     3.91 g of K will require  =  X g of O₂

Solving for X,
                     X  =  (3.91 g × 32 g) ÷ 39.098 g

                     X  =  3.2 g of O₂
