A secondary cell is one
- A can be recharged.
- B can be recharged by passing current through it in the same direction.
- C can be recharged by passing current through it in the opposite direction.
- D can not recharged
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) can be recharged by passing current through it in the opposite direction.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In secondary cells electrode reactions can be reversed by external electric energy source, therefore, these cells can
berecharged by passing electric current and used again and again.
The current is passed in the direction opposite to that of the flow of current generated by the cell.
berecharged by passing electric current and used again and again.
The current is passed in the direction opposite to that of the flow of current generated by the cell.
