← ScienceWhich outcome follows using nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries at very low temperatures?
A)Decreased ion diffusion within electrolyte✓
B)Increased hydrogen evolution reaction rate
C)Enhanced cathode material structural stability
D)Reduced electrolyte phase transition temperature
💡 Explanation
Low temperatures limit ion mobility; because ionic diffusion declines, battery performance is hampered; therefore, reduced current output occurs at low temperature, because of sluggish Ion Transport, rather than increased hydrogen evolution at the anode which decreases capacity at higher temperatures.
