How can carbon monoxide (CO) in hydrogen fuel be reduced to avoid poisoning fuel cell catalysts?
Why might a fuel cell vehicle produce more environmental benefit if its hydrogen is made using renewable electricity rather than from natural gas?
Why can carbon monoxide (CO) be harmful to many fuel cells?

Which of the following is the overall chemical reaction in a typical hydrogen fuel cell?
How does the efficiency of a well-operated fuel cell system typically compare to that of internal combustion engines for converting fuel energy to useful electrical energy?
Which type of fuel cell uses a solid ceramic oxide electrolyte that conducts oxide ions (O2-) at high temperatures?
Why is platinum used as a catalyst despite its high cost?
What is one disadvantage of producing hydrogen by steam reforming of natural gas compared with producing hydrogen by water electrolysis using renewable electricity?
