Fuel cell vehicle is the vehicle which is using fuel cell stack as a moving force instead of conventional combustions engines. They can be fed by H2 - so it will hydrogen fuel cell, or work on the solid oxide fuel cell principles.

No, fuel-cell automobiles do not use gas as a fuel. They use hydrogen gas as a fuel source, which is converted into electricity to power the vehicle.
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.
Depends on the vehicle, on most every fuel injected vehicle the answer is yes.Depends on the vehicle, on most every fuel injected vehicle the answer is yes.
Currently, there are no vehicles on the market which utilize the hydrogen fuel cell. Hyundai has plans to release a vehicle featuring hydrogen fuel cells as early as 2015. However, no vehicles currently exist that use this. There may be vehicles made by private individuals, but no pass produced vehicle has this technology right now.
A fuel cell oxidizes a fuel source, a standard cell is an electrochemical reaction.
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.
Fuel cells and batteries are similar because they use a chemical reaction to provide electricity. A battery stores the chemical reactants, usually metal compounds like lithium, zinc or manganese. Once used up, you must recharge or throw away the battery. A fuel cell actually creates electricity through reactants (hydrogen and oxygen) stored externally. The fuel cell will produce electricity as long as it has a fuel supply. In short, a fuel cell vehicle is refueled instead of recharged.
Varies from vehicle to vehicle.
Any H fuel cell car, totally gas free and it doesn't take coal power to charge like an electric car
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.
Hydrogen gas cannot be directly installed in a carburetor designed for liquid fuel. However, hydrogen can be used as a fuel source in a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, where it reacts with oxygen to produce electricity that powers the vehicle's electric motor.
The main fuel source for the work of the cell is the mitochondria.
