Hydrogen/Fuel Cells

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
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  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
