Jump-start the hydrogen economy!
The Hydrogen Fuel Cell Car & Experiment Kit provides a playful
introduction to one of the most significant technologies of the early 21st
Century. With this kit you can build a model car that actually runs on water!
First, add water and watch it separate into hydrogen and oxygen. Then, use
those stored gases to power your vehicle across the floor. Now that we have your
attention, roll up your sleeves and find out more through experiments and
demonstrations you can do on your own, in a classroom or with friends.
Fuel cells are a promising means of producing energy in the future. Some fuel
cells, such as this one, do not consume fossil fuels and therefore are
considered environmentally friendly. Automobile manufacturers are already
experimenting successfully with this technology and it is widely believed that
fuel cells will power automobiles and many electronic devices, including laptops
and cell phones, in the near future.
With this unique kit, you can build your own experimental reversible fuel
cell car to learn more about this energy source. With more than 30 experiments
and demonstrations, users will learn how a reversible fuel cell works to perform
electrolysis as well as to create energy. The electricity required to activate
electrolysis is created with a large solar cell included with the kit. During
electrolysis, water is separated into hydrogen and oxygen and the resulting
energy is stored as a gas. When needed, the gas is fed into the fuel cell, which
then serves as the power source.
Topics and Experiments
The 96-page, full color Experiment Manual offers over 30 experiments,
