Lesson: Secondary Galvanic Cells Chemistry

Start Practising

In this lesson, we will learn how to describe secondary cells and explain how they can be recharged.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

describe the differences between a secondary cell and a primary cell,
describe the composition and main components of a lead–acid battery and a lithium–ion battery,
explain, using half-equations, the discharging and charging reactions of a lead–acid battery and a lithium–ion battery,
discuss the advantages and disadvantages of lead–acid batteries and lithium–ion batteries.
