Consider a future
without
dependence upon fossil fuels
First, add water and watch
it separate into hydrogen and oxygen. Then, use those stored gases to
power
your vehicle across the floor. Now that we have your attention, roll up
your
sleeves and find out more through experiments and demonstrations you
can do on
your own, in a classroom or with friends.
Fuel cells are a
promising
means of producing energy in the future. Some fuel cells, such as this
one, do
not consume fossil fuels and therefore are considered environmentally
friendly.
Automobile manufacturers are already experimenting successfully with
this
technology and it is widely believed that fuel cells will power
automobiles and
many electronic devices, including laptops and cell phones, in the near
future.
With this unique
kit, you
can build your own experimental reversible fuel cell car to learn more
about
this energy source. With more than 30 experiments and demonstrations,
users
will learn how a reversible fuel cell works to perform electrolysis as
well as
to create energy. The electricity required to activate electrolysis is
created
with a large solar cell included with the kit. During electrolysis,
water is
separated into hydrogen and oxygen and the resulting energy is stored
as a gas.
When needed, the gas is fed into the fuel cell, which then serves as
the power
source.
