Back to batterys

As a battery ages the internal resistance increases. This resistance creates heat when there current flowing during charging or discharging and this heat boils the water out of the electrolyte. This is why you have charging problems and shorted life in a mixed set of batteries. You want all batteries in a set the same age and size.

Got a real simple question and won't go into much detail.

I'm going to replace two of my 6 volt batterys in the near future but I was wondering why this happens?

About six months ago I replaced two of the four batterys with new ones. The ones that I replaced would boil out in a few weeks and now the other two did the same thing. What makes a battery boil out of water when they reach a certain age. Anybody know????????
Oh yes the two that I replace are just fine.
