There are (at least) four methods for production of hydrogen.
(1) The cheapest method is steam reforming of methane:
CH4 + H2O --> CO + 3 H2
(2) An environmentally friendly, but not very efficient method is electrolysis of water, using a dilute sulfuric acid electrolyte:
4 H2O + 4 e- --> 2 H2 + 4 OH- ; 2 H2O --> O2 + 4 H+ + 4 e-
(3) The original Cavendish method of hydrogen production involves reaction of red-hot iron with steam.
(4) A convenient method for producing a small amount of hydrogen as economically as possible is the reaction of iron with dilute sulfuric acid.

∙ 9y agoNuclear energy cannot be stored in the conventional sense because nuclear energy is used as soon as it is created by the nuclear reactor. Used nuclear fuel is stored at nuclear power plants in steel-lined, concrete pools or basins filled with water.

∙ 13y agoAn inverted beaker filled with water is the method used in the laboratory for collecting hydrogen gas from a chemical reaction. Otherwise electrolysis of water is used and the hydrogen collected at the electrode in any suitable vessel. Hydrogen is very light so it will displace water easily.

Where is nuclear power stored?
Nuclear energy is a type of potential energy, which depends on the forces between the nucleons (protons and neutrons). In other words, the energy is stored in the relationship between the particles.
What is chemical energy stored in?
Chemical energy is energy stored in chemical bonds between atoms. Energy stored in fossil fuels is an example of potential energy.
How is the energy stored in uranium?
Uranium-235 has the property of undergoing fission (splitting) when it absorbs another neutron, and this fission releases energy in the form of heat. Energy cannot be put back into the uranium, it is a one-way process which destroys the uranium nucleus and forms other lighter elements.
How does nuclear energy use differ from geothermal and solar energy use?
C. Geothermal and solar energy are both renewable, while nuclear energy is noy...
What is chemical potential energy?
It is another form of potential stored in food, batteries, and fuel.
What energy is the energy that is stored in an atoms nucleus?
If it is stored in the nucleus, it must be nuclear energy.
What is the energy stored in the center of an atom?
nuclear energy
What is energy stored in atoms?
The energy stored in an atom's nucleus is nuclear energy.
Energy stored in the nucleus of an atom is called?
Energy that is stored in the nucleus of an atom is called Atomic Energy or nuclear energy.
The energy that is stored with atoms?
Nuclear energy.
What is the differences between potential energy and nuclear energy?
potential energy is stored energy. nuclear energy is radioactive
What energy stored in the center of atoms is called what energy?
Nuclear energy. (Centre of an atom → nucleus → nuclear)
What energy is stored in the nucleus of an atom?
This is the nuclear energy.
How is electrical and nuclear energy related?
Electrical energy is the energy generally stored in electrons and their movement. Nuclear energy is the energy stored with an atom. Electrons are a fundamental part of most atoms, thus nuclear energy also contains direct electrical energy.
The energy stored in the bonds of molecules?
Chemical Energy
What is nuclear energy if it is not renewable and not a fossil fuel?
It is energy stored by ancient supernovas in heavy nuclei like Uranium, when the stars exploded.It is also energy stored by the Big Bang in light nuclei like Hydrogen.This energy is stored in the Strong Nuclear Force as excess Nuclear Binding Energy.
Can nuclear energy be stored in a arc reactor?
no
