When charging my golf cart batteries they begin to bubble and produce a rancid smell?

I just installed new batteries in my golf cart because the water in the old ones evaporated and the plates were exposed for too long. The golf cart was able to move with the new batteries but when plugged into the charger the water began to bubble and it produced a rancid smell…Is this normal?

What can I put on my golf cart battery cables to prevent corrosion?

The battery cables in my golf cart are becoming corroded and I’m not sure why (I’m not exactly the mechanical type). Anyway, what can I spray or put on these cables to prevent the corrosion? Also, the corrosion is occuring on the metal part of the cables where they connect to the batteries.
One of my friends suggested liquid electrical tape. Is that a good idea?
