Question

fuel processing is the context of fuel cells is the conversion of an oxygen rich stream? true and false

Answer 1

Yes this segment is true

Answer 2

‘Fuel processing is the context of fuel cells is the conversion of an oxygen rich stream’ is a TRUE statement.

Explanation:  

• A fuel cell is a device which converts chemical energy into electrical energy. This is done by using energy rich bonds present in a compound.  

• These compounds when broken liberate energy stored in the bond. This bond energy is converted into electrical energy.

• The fuel cell uses hydrogen and oxygen. They combine to form water.

• This water when again electrolysed liberates energy which is converted into ‘electrical energy’ hence oxygen is used as a fuel.
