Hydrogen would in principle make a good fuel. Combustion with air is exothermic yielding water (mainly) and carbon dioxide and sulfur oxide emissions typical of hydrocarbon based fuels would be avoided. The main issue is storing enough on board to get a reasonable range from a vehicle. Lots of different technologies have been proposed.

Can you use hydrogen peroxyde in a fuel cell?
Hydrogen peroxide can be used in certain types of fuel cells called direct borohydride fuel cells. In these fuel cells, hydrogen peroxide is used as an oxidant in place of oxygen. However, the efficiency and practicality of using hydrogen peroxide in fuel cells is still being researched and developed.
What countries are using hydrogen as a fuel?
Countries such as Japan, Germany, South Korea, China, and the United States are actively using hydrogen as a fuel for various applications, including transportation, power generation, and industrial processes. These countries are investing in hydrogen infrastructure and promoting hydrogen fuel cell technology to reduce emissions and promote energy diversity.
Is using hydrogen as a fuel in cars a chemical change?
To get Hydrogen as a fuel to be used in electric vehicles, the hydrogen combines with oxygen giving of 2 electrons which powers the application. The waste product is H20 (water!). If you want a simple yes or no, then the answer is Yes, because you are converting Hydrogen into Water to produce electricity.
What can you make with hydrogen?
Hydrogen can be used to produce electricity in fuel cells, used as a clean fuel for transportation in hydrogen cars, and utilized in ammonia production for fertilizers. It is also used as a reducing agent in metal refining processes.
Which cell can produce hydrogen gas fuel by using electricity to decompose water?
The cell that can produce hydrogen gas fuel by using electricity to decompose water is an electrolyzer. Electrolyzers use an electric current to split water (H2O) into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) gases through a process called electrolysis.
What are the possibilities of hydrogen fuel?
I'm not sure what you mean by that but if I had to answer, it would be an explosion. Or used for rockets :P
Which is a byproduct of using hydrogen fuel?
The only byproduct of using pure hydrogen as a fuel is water, often in vapor form.
Is using hydrogen as a fuel in cars?
Hydrogen can be used as fuel in carsbecause it don't cause any pollution
What fuel is the sun using to release energy?
Our sun, Sol, uses hydrogen for fuel.
Is it possible to get hydrogen fuel from biomass?
Yes. However, it is not yet economically practical, as it takes more energy to convert the biomass into hydrogen than we can get from using the hydrogen for fuel.
Fuel cells produce energy from hydrogen by?
the fuel cells convert hydrogen into energy using a converter and that energy is used to power the vehicle
Is there any danger in using hydrogen as fuel in cars?
Hydrogen tanks on the few experimental cars that are using the fuel tend to keep the fuel tank above the passenger compartment. Should a rupture occur in the tank, fuel would float away and above the problem. This makes hydrogen a fairly safe fuel.
Why are people worried about using hydrogen as a fuel?
Because it is highly explosive
Why is hydrogen a renewable fuel?
Hydrogen is not a renewable fuel. It is a secondary energy source (or an energy carrier) that could be produced using another primary energy source. Hydrogen could be produced using either renewable primary energy source (e.g. solar energy), nuclear energy, or by using fossil fuel (e.g. natural gas)
Can you use hydrogen peroxyde in a fuel cell?
Hydrogen peroxide can be used in certain types of fuel cells called direct borohydride fuel cells. In these fuel cells, hydrogen peroxide is used as an oxidant in place of oxygen. However, the efficiency and practicality of using hydrogen peroxide in fuel cells is still being researched and developed.
What are the disadvantages of using water as a hydrogen fuel source?
It takes more energy to separate the hydrogen than we can get at the end.
What countries are using hydrogen as a fuel?
Countries such as Japan, Germany, South Korea, China, and the United States are actively using hydrogen as a fuel for various applications, including transportation, power generation, and industrial processes. These countries are investing in hydrogen infrastructure and promoting hydrogen fuel cell technology to reduce emissions and promote energy diversity.
