Current Question (ID: 18243)

Question:
$\text{During discharge of a lead storage cell, the density of sulphuric acid in the cell-}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{Increases.}$
  • 2. $\text{Decreases.}$
  • 3. $\text{Remains unchanged.}$
  • 4. $\text{Initially increases but decreases subsequently.}$
Solution:
$\text{HINT: Pb(s) + PbO}_2\text{(s) + 2H}^+\text{(aq) + 2HSO}_4^-\text{(aq)} \rightarrow \text{2PbSO}_4\text{(s) + 2H}_2\text{O(l)}$ $\text{STEP 1:}$ $\text{This discharge process is driven by the conduction of electrons from the negative plate back into the cell at the positive plate in the external circuit.}$ $\text{Negative plate reaction: Pb(s) + HSO}_4^-\text{(aq)} \rightarrow \text{PbSO}_4\text{(s) + H}^+\text{(aq) + 2e}^- $ $\text{Positive plate reaction: PbO}_2\text{(s) + HSO}_4^-\text{(aq) + 3H}^+\text{(aq) + 2e}^- \rightarrow \text{PbSO}_4\text{(s) + 2H}_2\text{O(l)}$ $\text{Combining these two reactions, one can determine the overall reaction:}$ $\text{Pb(s) + PbO}_2\text{(s) + 2H}^+\text{(aq) + 2HSO}_4^-\text{(aq)} \rightarrow \text{2PbSO}_4\text{(s) + 2H}_2\text{O(l)}$ $\text{STEP 2:}$ $\text{During the discharge of lead storage cell, sulphuric acid is consumed. It's concentration decreases and}$ $\text{therefore, density decreases. Density of H}_2\text{SO}_4 \text{decrease from 1.3 g/mL to 1.13 g/mL}$
