Solution

(a) $\mathrm{Cd}(\mathrm{s})+2 \mathrm{Ni}(\mathrm{OH})_3(\mathrm{~s}) \rightarrow \mathrm{CdO}(\mathrm{s})+2 \mathrm{Ni}(\mathrm{OH})_2(\mathrm{~s})$ $+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(l)$ Discharge of secondary Battery<br/><br/> (b) $\mathrm{Zn}(\mathrm{Hg})+\mathrm{HgO}$ (s) $\rightarrow \mathrm{ZnO}(\mathrm{s})+\mathrm{Hg}(l)$ (Primary Battery Mercury cell)<br/><br/> (c) $2 \mathrm{PbSO}_4(\mathrm{~s})+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(l) \rightarrow \mathrm{Pb}(\mathrm{s})+\mathrm{PbO}_2(\mathrm{~s})+$ $2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4(\mathrm{aq})$ (Charging of secondary Battery)<br/><br/> (d) $2 \mathrm{H}_2(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{O}_2(\mathrm{~g}) \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}(l)$ (Fuel cell)
