A fuel cell is really just a smaller gas tank, usually installed in drag/race cars, and off-road vehcles. Less fuel means less weight, thus increasing the power-to-weight ratio in a vehicle. It also makes more space in the undercarriage of the vehicle, allowing for installation of larger/different drivetrain and suspension components.
A fuel cell car would be defined as a vehicle with an electric motor or engine that uses a fuel cell to produce electricity to power its motor with hydrogen.
The mitochondria in a cell convert food cells into energy. The cell uses that energy to kickstart necessary reactions.
A fuel cell oxidizes a fuel source, a standard cell is an electrochemical reaction.
Because a fuel cell converts the chemical energy of a fuel and an oxidant into electricity. This means that the space craft uses this electricity to work. It is basically like a giant battery which powers the space craft. Hope this answers your question.
The vanadium redox flow fuel cell uses liquids. ( a "battery" that uses liquids instead of solids) So "electrical energy" can be stored in a liquid battery.
it uses electricity to turn water into pure oxygen and hydrogen then uses those gasses to produce electricityand it does this using a reversible Proton Exchange Membrane
A hydrogen fuel cell uses hydrogen as its fuel and oxygen (usually from air) as its oxidant. Other fuels include hydrocarbons and alcohols. Other oxidants include chlorine and chlorine dioxide.
Takes water, carbon dioxide and photons of light to make sugars that the plant uses for fuel, storage and construction.
There are 3 main types of a Fuel Cell. 1. Hydrogen Fuel Cell. This is the main one people use nowadays. 2. Solid Oxide Fuel Cell. 3. Alkaline Fuel cell. Made from Alkaline metals.
The fuel for a cell is made up of oxygen and hydrogen. The chemical energy produced by the two is what is converted to serve as fuel for the cell.
The main fuel source for the work of the cell is the mitochondria.
A fuel cell is different from a battery cell in so far as reactants are constantly supplied to a fuel cell making it an open system whereas a battery cell is a closed system that stores the reactants within it. A fuel cell works as long as fuel is supplied to it whereas a battery cell requires regular replacements.
