In a Li-ion battery the composition of the cathode is LiCoO 2 when completely discharged. On charging
Question:
In a Li-ion battery the composition of the cathode is LiCoO2 when completely discharged. On charging approximately 50% of the Li+ ions can be extracted from the cathode and transported to the graphite anode where they intercalate between the layers.
(a) What is the composition of the cathode when the battery is fully charged?
(b) If the LiCoO2 cathode has a mass of 10g (when fully discharged), how many coulombs of electricity can be delivered on completely discharging a fully charged battery?
