What is a bad thing about hydrogen fuel cells?
There are two problems with hydrogen fuel cells. One is that the cars that run off of hydrogen fuel cells are very expensive to make another thing is that hydrogen storage is not easy. The work and money it would take to put up hydrogen stations around the country for cars is too much to even consider it. Also another problem with hydrogen is te oil companies that don't wanna lose their business.
What type of emissions do hydrogen fuel cells create?
how does a hybrid car work
Do hydrogen generators for cars work?
Hydrogen generators for cars, which use electrolysis to generate hydrogen from water, can technically work. However, the efficiency of these systems is often low, making them less practical compared to other technologies like fuel cells. Additionally, the infrastructure for storing and distributing hydrogen fuel is currently limited, which can further impact their usefulness.
How do hydrogen cars work?
The success of the hydrogen car is because the the hydrogen fuel cell. This cell converts hydrogen into electricity and powers the car and the only byproduct is heat and water.
How do hydrogen fuel cell cars work?
Hydrogen fuel cell cars are simply electric cars with a different kind of battery. The hydrogen that is stored in a tank runs to the (in this example case) Proton Exchange Membrane, where the hydrogen nucleus, a proton, passes through the membrane, while the electrons must stay behind. To get back to the hydrogen atoms, which are already mingling with oxygen atoms, the electrons pass around the membrane and are captured in an electrical circuit and forced to do work (like run a motor) before they can be reunited with the hydrogen and oxygen. once reunited, the resulting chemical is just hydrogen and oxygen; water.
How to work hydrogen car?
CArs will not run efficiently on hydrogen gas
What materials are required for a hydrogen fuel cell?
Hydrogen fuel cells require a few key materials, including a proton exchange membrane, catalysts (often platinum), hydrogen fuel, oxygen from the air, and appropriate electrical connections. These materials work together to facilitate a chemical reaction that generates electricity.
What energy cars need to work?
the energy that cars get is from the fuel
Are fuel cells dangerous to make or dipose of?
Fuels cells are essentially not very dangerous. But in order for a fuel cell to work hydrogen must be used. Hydrogen is usually fed to a fuel cell from a resevoir. Hydrogen is very flammable and if the concentration in an area of hydrogen is too great any spark of any kind even friction can make it combust. Not all fuel cells run on hydrogen. There are natural gas and methanol cells. Fuel cells are dangerous to your life if you are making one in your basement workshop and don't tell your significant other what you're doing and what it costs first. This is because the membrane in a fuel cell, a DuPont film called Nafion, costs $175 per square foot and it looks like that plastic you make document protectors from. "YOU SPENT $200 ON THIS!?!?!?!?!"
How hydrogen fuel engine work?
By burning the hydrogen and making water.
What are the negatives of hydroelectric cars?
there would be more moisture in the air... hydrogen as a fuel is not very stable... probably explosions would go up... so they have to work out the kinks...
How do hydrogen fuel cells work?
The hydrogen fuel cell operates similar to a battery. It has two electrodes, an anode and a cathode, separated by a membrane. Oxygen passes over one electrode and hydrogen over the other.The hydrogen reacts to a catalyst on the electrode anode that converts the hydrogen gas into negatively charged electrons (e-) and positively charged ions.The electrons flow out of the cell to be used as electrical energy. The hydrogen ions move through the electrolyte membrane to the cathode electrode where they combine with oxygen and the electrons to produce water. Unlike batteries, fuel cells never run out. In principle, a fuel cell operates like a battery. Unlike a battery, a fuel cell does not run down or require recharging. It will produce energy in the form of electricity and heat as long as fuel is supplied.
