In which respect, does a nearly discharged lead acid secondary cell differ mainly from a freshly charged cell in its emf or in its internal resistance ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

A discharged lead acid secondary cell differs from a freshly charged cell mainly in internal resistance and partly in its emf as a nearly discharged lead acid secondary cell acquires very high internal resistance.
