One suggestion for solving the fuel shortage due to decreasing volumes of fossil fuels
are hydrogen / oxygen fuel cells.
a. State the two half-cell reaction equations for such fuel cells. Calculate the cell
potential as well as the electrical work gained by this fuel cell at standard conditions
with E002/H20 = 1.229 V.
