---|---|---|---|---|---|
Non rechargeable/Primary | provides electrical energy until chemicals have reacted to extent that V fails
🗑
|
||||
Rechargeable/Secondry | chemicals react
recharging reaction is reversed and chemicals are regenerated
🗑
|
||||
Examples of secondry cell | Ni/Cadmium
Li ion/Li polymer (laptops)
🗑
|
||||
Fuel Cells | external supplies fuel+oxidant
continual electrical supply as long as reactants supplied
🗑
|
||||
Which terminal in the fuel cell provides electrons? | -ve terminal
(no recharging required)
🗑
|
||||
What does a fuel cell required | electrolyte
fuel/oxidants
🗑
|
||||
Where does the hydrogen come from for hydrogen cars? | H2g/hydrogen rich fuels
(methanol, natural gas, petrol)
🗑
|
||||
How is the hydrogen generated? | Fuel reacted with water to produce hydrogen and CO2
🗑
|
||||
Why is methanol used as a fuel? | easier to store than a gas
generated from biomass
CO2 is produced
🗑
|
||||
Advantages of Hydrogen | less CO2
less pollution/ air pollutants
greater efficiency/ fuel consumption
🗑
|
||||
How is hydrogen stored | liquid under pressure
adsorbed
absorbed into lattice structure
🗑
|
||||
Limitiations | Toxic chemicals in fuel cells
Fuel cells have a limited lifetime
Absorbers/adsorbers limited lifespan
Feasibility of storing a pressurised liquid
Large scale storage and transport (cost effective/infrastructure)
🗑
|
||||
Hydrogen economy | hydrogen must be accepted as a fuel
problems with handling and maintanence
engergy carrier not energy source
🗑
|
||||
What is a battery | more than one cell joined together
🗑
|
||||
example of primary batteries | zinc-carbon
alakaline
lithium
🗑
|
||||
Examples of secondary batteries | Li ion
lead-acid
nickel-cadmium
🗑
|
||||
During the reverse reaction what happens to the products from the forward reaction | products stick to electrodes not dispearsed into the electrolyte
🗑
