Write the oxidation, reduction and overall redox reaction taking place in the Lithium ion battery.

Answer»

Solution :At the anode oxidation occurs
`""Li_((s)) rarr Li_((AQ))^(+)+E^(-)`
At the cathode reduction occurs
`""LI^(+)+CoO_(2(s))+e^(-) rarr LiCoO_(2(s))`
OVERALL reactions
`Li_((s))+CoO_(2) rarr LiCoO_(2(s))`
