lithium-ion battery components
M etal oxide a lithium battery also uses electrolyte and graphite . Graphite has a layered structure . This layers are loosely bounded in order to easily store the lithium ions in them. The electrolyte, which is located between graphite and metal oxide, acts as a guard which allows only lithium ions through ( no electrons are allowed to pass). If we connect a power source between the two metals, the positive side will attract and remove electrons from the lithium atoms of the metal oxide. This electrons will flow through the external circuit, since they can not flow through the electrolyte, and reach the graphite layer. In the mean time the positively charged lithium ions will be attracted from the negative terminal and they will flow through the electrolyte reaching the graphite space. When the lithium ions reach the graphite sheet, the battery is fully charged . In this way we have achieved the first objective; the lith...
