Question

Explain how hydrogen fuel cells work, and why they provide a healthy, clean way to produce heat and electricity?

Answer 1

Similar to today’s gasoline vehicles, fuel cell electric cars can have a driving range of more than 300 miles on one tank of hydrogen fuel. They can refuel in just a few minutes and the fueling experience is almost identical to a gas station. Since the “engine” (i.e., fuel cell) has no moving parts, you’ll never need to change the oil. But because a fuel cell is more than twice as efficient as an internal combustion engine, a fuel cell car travels farther on that tank of hydrogen than a traditional car would on gasoline. This means you only need about half the amount of hydrogen, with double the fuel economy.

Answer 2

A fuel cell that works by passing hydrogen through it's ''anode'' is known as the hydrogen fuel cell because it makes use of hydrogen for it's working. Such a fuel cell has oxygen passing through it's ''cathode''. When free electrons travel through the electrolyte, they hinder the chemical reaction.

Hydrogen and water either meeting in cathode or in anode form water which passes from the cell and resulting in forming electricity. It is a healthy way to producing electricity because neither does it emit any pollutant or toxin and nor is hydrogen very flammable.
