Capacity of one lead accumulator cell is

Correct answer: B. 2 volts

  • A. 1.5 volts
  • B. 2 volts
  • C. 3 volts
  • D. 1 volt

Explanation

The capacity of a lead accumulator cell can be expressed in both Ampere-hours (Ah) or Watt-hours (Wh) and volts,depending on the context. However, in this specific case, assuming the question refers to the nominal voltage the cell can maintain for a certain duration, the most likely correct answer is:2 voltsLead accumulator cells have a relatively stable voltage output during discharge. They are often rated based on the voltage they can maintain for a specific time before needing recharge.2 volts is a typical minimum voltage considered acceptable for most applications involving lead accumulators.Maintaining a voltage above 2 volts ensures sufficient functionality.While other options like 1.5 volts or 3 volts could be possible ratings for specific lead accumulator cells, 2 volts is a more common reference point due to its reliability and performance in various applications.

About Electrochemistry

Electrochemistry describes electron transfer through oxidation and reduction, identifies oxidizing and reducing agents, and applies oxidation numbers to balance redox equations. It also covers electrode potential and the standard hydrogen electrode, which provides the reference for comparing the reduction tendencies of other electrodes.
