Answer: B
Reversible rusting of iron
Credible · USC Dornsife
Unlike lithium-ion batteries that last 4 hours, iron-air batteries can provide power for over 100 hours. They work by absorbing oxygen to turn iron into rust (discharging) and using electricity to turn rust back into iron (charging). Using cheap, non-toxic iron makes them 1/10th the cost of lithium systems, ideal for balancing wind and solar grids.
Search 'iron air battery animation' to see the visual process of iron pellets turning into rust and back. Challenge your eco-conscious friend to guess how common rust could solve the green energy crisis — they'd never see this iron-clad solution coming.
