The anode of the battery strips the electron away from the hydrogen, which generates electricity, while the cathode splits up the 2 oxygen molecules. The 2 protons (hydrogen molecules) then combines with an electron and that creates water which is exaus]]> 2019-03-27 00:35:26 UTC https://padlet.com/joegaidos19/8h3l7r5d02vy/wish/345505603 joegaidos19 https://padlet.com/joegaidos19/8h3l7r5d02vy/wish/345506543 1. The fuel (oxygen and hydrogen) is abundant
2.  It generates a lot of energy
3.  It takes significantly less time to charge than a conventional electric battery
4.  Only emits water as exhaust ]]> 2019-03-27 00:40:27 UTC https://padlet.com/joegaidos19/8h3l7r5d02vy/wish/345506543 joegaidos19 https://padlet.com/joegaidos19/8h3l7r5d02vy/wish/345507007 1. Limited to smaller scale use (cars)
2. Not enough refueling stations
3.  Hard to release hydrogen from another chemical bond
4. Hydrogen and oxygen are both volatile gasses]]> 2019-03-27 00:42:31 UTC https://padlet.com/joegaidos19/8h3l7r5d02vy/wish/345507007 joegaidos19 https://padlet.com/joegaidos19/8h3l7r5d02vy/wish/345507553 Currently they are being used in some cars which are sold in MEDCs. The problem for LEDCs is that they don't have the infrastructure required to be able to practically use this technology. Most of the reason why this technology is not being used is because pure hydrogen is not readily available and there is currently no large scale production of this technology so it tends to be more expensive. With the lower oil prices there is less of an economic incentive for countries to pursue this technology.]]> 2019-03-27 00:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/joegaidos19/8h3l7r5d02vy/wish/345507553 joegaidos19 https://padlet.com/joegaidos19/8h3l7r5d02vy/wish/345507962 Hydrogen fuel cells are being developed to be larger, smaller, and more efficient.
