In a hydrogen fuel cell used to power a car, where does the oxygen come from?

• The air

• A catalyst

• The fuel

What is the main reason why hydrogen is more difficult to store than diesel?

• Hydrogen is a gas at room temperature but diesel is a liquid

Hydrogen Fuel cells generate electricity by combining hydrogen with oxygen.

• True

• False

 

What is the difference between a battery and a fuel cell?

• Fuel cells are cheaper than batteries.

• A fuel cell can be used only in a car, while batteries have lots of uses.

• A battery eventually dies, but a fuel cell continually recharges itself.
