Fuel Cells

Question 1 • Foothill-B Period-Chemistry-26/27B

A company that is concerned about the environment wants to encourage the use of their fuel cell cars, so they are putting together information to help sell the cars. They want to be sure their material is accurate. Which piece of information is true about fuel cell cars?

Answer
A
Fuel cell cars are cheaper to buy.
B
Fuel cell cars reduce use of non-renewable fossil fuels
C
Fuel cell cars are more powerful than gasoline-powered vehicles.
D
Fuel cell cars allow for the safe storage of hydrogen gas at filling stations.

Explanation

Fuel cell cars use hydrogen to generate electricity, rather than burning gasoline in an engine. This can reduce the use of non-renewable fossil fuels, especially when the hydrogen is produced using renewable energy. The other statements are not generally true: fuel cell cars are not necessarily cheaper or more powerful, and hydrogen storage at filling stations requires careful safety measures.
