An introduction to Fuel Cells (GCSE Chemistry)

This video covers the content needed for the Fuel Cells module on GCSE Chemistry. Part of the lesson pack published on the TES website for specification parts AQA 4.5.2.2, Edexcel 5.25C, 5.26C, 5.27C and OCR C6.2o, C6.2p, C6.2Q. Produced by the Hydrogen Hub in partnership with Arval and BNP Paribas.

this is literally the best video i saw on this topic!!! hats off:), , love u ur amazing<3

[JamieSunderland]

This animation is very good :) made the video easier to watch

[KillerTacos]

Would’ve loved to see more animations like this on the channel

Gonna be pleased if this comes up tomorrow now haha! This was so helpful- best vid I’ve seen on fuel cells

This is a fantastic video, but incorrect when you say that this is AQA higher.
This may be correct for OCR and Edexcel, as I don't teach those courses, but the AQA higher specification talks about alkaline hydrogen fuel cells, whereas the one explained/demonstrated in the video is an acid hydrogen fuel cell.
I've been finding it really hard to find a comprehensive video of an alkaline version of a hydrogen fuel cell.
If you have/could make one for this, that would be fab!
Many thanks and an otherwise super video!

A combination of Fuel cell and batteries can be optimized to minimize the cost and maaximaize the range. Battery works as a buffer when the demand is higher than production cap. It means faster refueling, possibility to charge at home, less lithium digged and faster transition to pollution free. ✌

Really clear useful video thanks so much !

700 kg of batteries. Now a Model 3 uses about 480kg of batteries for a 315 mileage range. Can't wait for this number to go down.

Amazing.. video.. good work

But I have a question what will happen if fuel cell cars continue to produce water vapour.. it will rain I guess and someday if not then some day our ocean will also get dry.. And what about oxygen a fuel cell car consume, will this deplet oxygen from environment ??
plz explain I am searching for it.. but didn't found anything yet

This is gonna sound so odd but anyone know what the background music of this video is?

Not sure about 5 KG Hydrogen driving a car 300 miles according to some other videos like Science Channel here on YouTube.

"Hydrogen is widely available to all", what this silly video forgets is that Hydrogen is NOT an energy source, it's only an energy conveyer, SO, you still have to rely on (most of the time) on fossil fuels to make the Hydrogen, which therefore puts it on par with conventional petrol-powered cars, in terms of energy dependence.
