Question by cookiegal123: I’m making a hydrogen/oxygen fuel cell that has an aqueous electrolyte. What should it be called?
I’m making a fuel cell for Science Fair. I was originally calling it a Proton-Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell, but I later found I didn’t even have a membrane! I’m using an aqueous electrolyte, not a solid one. So now I don’t know what to call my fuel cell, and I’m stuck! A friend who did this project before called it an Alleoline H2/O2 fuel cell. But she also called it an Aqueous Fuel Cell and an Alkaline Hydrogen and Oxygen fuel cell! I’m stuck now. Please help!
