Answer» I)Syngas, or synthesis gas, is a fuel gas mixture consisting primarily of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and very often some carbon dioxide. The name comes from its use as intermediates in creating synthetic natural gas and for producing ammonia or methanol. ii)Thewater-gas shiftreaction (WGSR) describes the reaction of carbon monoxide andwatervapor to form carbon dioxide and hydrogen (the mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen (notwater) is known aswater gas) iii) A fuel cell is an electrochemical cell that converts the potential energy from a fuel into electricity through an electrochemical reaction of hydrogen fuel with oxygen or another oxidizing agent. |
