One is located in the lower left corner of the engine compartment, and another is between the trunk and the rear seats. Battery Introduction: A battery refers to a type of cell that can be reused after being discharged and recharged. Types include lead-acid batteries, nickel-iron batteries, and nickel-cadmium batteries. In a lead-acid battery, the positive electrode is lead dioxide, the negative electrode is lead, and the electrolyte is a dilute sulfuric acid solution. During discharge (use), the positive and negative electrodes react with sulfuric acid to form lead sulfate, and the concentration of the sulfuric acid solution decreases to a certain level, necessitating recharging. Using an external power source to recharge restores the electrodes and solution to their original state, allowing continued use after charging. Battery Working Principle: The negative electrode is made of a lead plate filled with sponge-like lead, and the positive electrode is a lead plate filled with lead dioxide, using a 22-28% dilute sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. Electrical energy is converted into chemical energy, and during discharge, chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy. When the battery discharges, metallic lead acts as the negative electrode, undergoing oxidation to form lead sulfate; lead dioxide acts as the positive electrode, undergoing reduction to form lead sulfate. When the battery is charged with direct current, lead and lead dioxide are generated at the two electrodes, respectively.
