Which mechanism causes limited battery performance at low temperatures?

💡 Explanation

Decreased temperature reduces ion mobility via changes to the Arrhenius equation; therefore, the internal reaction rate slows because it relies exponentially on temperature, rather than resistance dominating or phase transition being the limiting factor.
