In what part of a car is the majority of energy produced?

Energy is produced in the battery of a car.

where in the human body cell is energy produced?

In the human body cell energy is produced in the mitochondria.

what type of battery is used in today's electric cars?

In today's electric cars Lithium-ion batteries are used.

what chemical in the body are responsible for much of the breakdown of food in the digestive system?

The chemicals in the body that are responsible for much of the breakdown of food in the digestive process are pepsin,trypsin, and chymotrypsin.

Describe the composition of the two electrodes in a lithium-ion battery?

The composition of two electrodes in a lithium-ion battery are a positive electrode and a negative electrode. Lithium ion batteries consist of three main components:a positive electrode,a negative electrode, and an electrolyte solution. The positive electrode,or cathode,is made from a type of layered lithium oxide such as lithium cobalt oxide. The negative electrode is made of graphite-a form of pure carbon. The electrolyte is a nonages solution of lithium salt.

what is the difference between hydrocarbons and carbohydrates?

The difference between hydrocarbons and carbohydrates is that hydrocarbons contain hydrogen and carbon but carbohydrates contain carbon COMBINED with oxygen and hydrogen in the ratio which occur in water.

name three chemical compounds mentioned in the article that are broken down in either a car or a human.

Three chemical compounds that are either broken down in either a car or human are carbon dioxide,lead acid, and carbon electrodes.

Name the three chemical elements that are used as catalytic converters of automobiles

Three chemical elements that are used as catalysis in the catalytic converters of automobiles are reduction of nitrogen oxides,oxidation of carbon monoxide, and oxidation of unburnt hydrocarbons.

List four advantages that Lithium ion batteries have over lead acid batteries

four advantages that lithium-ion batteries have over lead acid batteries are that lithium is lighter, it is much more reactive, it provides a high charge density, and lithium-ion batteries hold their charge much better than other types.

what is the chemical term for the process that happened in the lead acid battery?

the chemical term for the process that happens at the lead in a lead acid battery is lead plate system. In the lead plate system the circuit is completed when the electrons travel to the lead acid plate where reduction takes place. In this reduction ,lead (IV) oxide is reduced to lead (II) sulfate. In lead (IV) oxide the lead has a +4 oxidation state. In lead (II) sulfate it is (+2). This occurs because the reaction adds two electrons to the lead reducing it from +4 to +2.

List three disadvantages of using electric cars

the disadvantages for using an electric car are the range limits the use of these cars to relatively small distances, its expensive, and most electricity in the u.s is generated by burning coal which leads to environmental pollutants.

name two disadvantages for the electric car?

two disadvantages for electric cars are that they cost less to run and you need very few visits to the local garage.

What happens when lead acid recharges?

when a lead-acid battery recharges the subsequent release of two electrons. A permeable membrane called the separator is what allows the battery to generate electricity. Otherwise, it would short-Circuit and could explode.
