What happens in a lithium-ion battery when discharging (© 2019 Let's Talk Science based on an image by ser_igor via iStockphoto). When the battery is in use, the lithium ions flow from the anode to the cathode, and the electrons move from the cathode to the anode. When you charge a lithium-ion battery, the exact opposite process happens.
That's why lithium-ion batteries don't use elemental lithium. Instead, lithium-ion batteries typically contain a lithium-metal oxide, such as lithium-cobalt oxide (LiCoO 2). This supplies the lithium-ions. Lithium-metal oxides are used in the cathode and lithium-carbon compounds are used in the anode.
As long as lithium ions are making the trek from one electrode to another, there is a constant flow of electrons. This provides the energy to keep your device running. Since this cycle can be repeated hundreds of times, this type of battery is rechargeable.
