This research work was done under a laboratory condition. During the course of this study, comprehensive literature survey or review of 6 Volt Lead Acid Accumulator was made.
The material used like grid plates of lead, terminals, Perspex container used was sourced out locally from scars cells. The dilute sulphric acid (H2S04) used was diluted with distilled water.
The constructed accumulator was then tested by filling with, dilute sulphric Acid of specific gravity of 1.25, charging it in the usual way and then using it to supply current is an external circuit it’s emf which was about 6.3 volts was found to be fairly steady for a good number of days thus indicating that it compares favourably with those manufactured under factory conditions. It’s internal resistance was also found to be low and is about 0.7ohms.
An electrolytic cells is a liquid that an electric current can pass through especially in an electric cell or a battery.
Electrolytic cell is where current flows from an external power source, the effect of the current that flow is monitored with the help of a galvanometer (G).
Electrochemical cell is one which develops it’s own electromotive force (emf) spontaneously due to a chemical reaction occurring within it, or it can be said that it is used in producing an electric current, setting up two electrodes, which have different potentials. An electric current flows though the wire that connects the two metals or electrodes outside the solution. In an electrochemical cell, chemical energy is converted to electrical energy (eg) batteries. A cell consists of two electrodes placed in an electrolyte.
