What condition must be met for a battery to be rechargeable? O The electrochemical reaction of the battery must be reversible. O Either its anode or its cathode must generate a gas as a result of the electrochemical reaction. O It must generate electricity via an acid-base reaction rather than via an oxidation-reduction reaction. O The battery must use liquid and aqueous solutions.
