At both electrodes, therefore, a solid conductor of electrons (semi-conducting lead–dioxide, PbO 2, in the positive plate; metallic lead, Pb, in the negative) reacts with sulfuric acid to form a nonconductive, solid product of lead sulfate, PbSO 4. The two discharge reactions are accompanied by an increase in the volume of the solid phase.
The lead acid battery uses lead as the anode and lead dioxide as the cathode, with an acid electrolyte. The following half-cell reactions take place inside the cell during discharge: At the anode: Pb + HSO 4 – → PbSO 4 + H + + 2e – At the cathode: PbO 2 + 3H + + HSO 4 – + 2e – → PbSO 4 + 2H 2 O. Overall: Pb + PbO 2 +2H 2 SO 4 → ...

The lead-acid cell can be demonstrated using sheet lead plates for the two electrodes. However, such a construction produces only around one ampere for roughly postcard-sized plates, and for only a few minutes. Gaston Planté found a way to provide a much larger effective surface area. In Planté''s design, the positive and negative plates were formed of two spirals o…
