  3. As a result of which electrons flow from the anode to the cathode through an external circuit.
  4. We know that the rate of flow of electrons generates a current.
  5. In order to keep this flowing flowing current charged ions inside the battery flow from cathode to anode.
  6. In this way, a steady current is maintained in the circuit.
  7. Hence, a battery converts chemical energy into electric energy.

Therefore, the given statement is true.
