(a) A lead storage battery is a secondary battery.
The following chemical equations take place in a lead storage battery.
: 
When a battery is charged, the reverse of all these reactions takes place.
Hence, on charging, PbSO4(s) present at the anode and cathode is converted into Pb(s) and PbO2(s) respectively.
b) 
Or
(a) Quantity of electricity passed = (2A) x (3 x 60 x 60s) = 21600 C
