Week 1 Understanding Different Battery Chemistry
| Battery Type | Annode Material | Cathode Material | Cathode Reaction | Anode Reaction | Description |
| LCO | Graphite | Lithium Cobolt Oxide (LiCoO2) | LiCoO2<->Li+ + e- + CoO2 | C6 + Li+ + e- <->LiC6 | During charging, Lithium Cobolt Oxide breaks into CoO2, Li+ and electron. The Li+ ion moves through the electrolyte and electron flows throw the electrical path between anode and cathode, at anode the combines with carbon and form LiC6. During discharge LiC6 breaks into Li+, Carbon and Electron, the Li+ ion passes back to cathode through electrolyte and electron flows back through the electric connection. At cathode they combine with the and reforms the Lithium Cobolt Oxide |

The Li+ ion moves through the electrolyte and electron flows throw the electrical path between anode and cathode, at anode the combines with carbon and form LiC6. During discharge LiC6 breaks into Li+, Carbon and Electron, the Li+ ion passes back to cathode through electrolyte and electron flows back through the electric connection. At cathode they combine with the and reforms the Lithium Cobolt Oxide |
