Half equations

Featured Replies

I found these half equations when searching for info on a lead acid accumilator, the red two was not there until I placed it, was I correct to do so?

 

Anode:

Pb(s) + SO42-(aq) → PbSO4(s) + 2e-

 

Cathode:

PbO2(s) + 4H+(aq) + SO42-(aq) + 2e- → PbSO4(s) + 2H2O(l)

 

Overall:

Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2SO42-(aq) + 4H+(aq) → 2PbSO4(s) + 2H2O(l)

 

Also, if anybody has any good links on lead acid accumulators or silver button cells I would really it, thanks.
