|
Answer» Solution :Those cells in which DECIMAL energy of fuel is converted into electrical energy are called fuel cells. ELECTRODE reactions `{:("At anode", H_(2)(g) + 2OH^(-) (aq) to 2H_(2)O (L) + 2e^(-) xx 2),("At CATHODE", O_(2)(g) + 2H_(2)O(l) + 4e^(-) to 4OH^(-) (aq)),("Net cell reaction", 2H_(2) (g) + O_(2) (g) to 2H_(2)O(l)):}` |
