The Hydrogen Fuel Cell Demonstration
Product Code : JA-GCE-6829
The Hydrogen Fuel Cell Demonstration (SKU JA-GCE-6829) shows both halves of the hydrogen energy story in one cell. A short current from a 9 V battery splits water, forming hydrogen bubbles on one platinum-coated mesh electrode and oxygen on the other; the battery is then removed and the gases recombine to water, generating electricity that is read on a voltmeter. This hydrogen fuel cell demonstration kit contains materials for five demonstrations and is supplied by JaincoLab.
Specifications
The demonstration uses platinum-coated metal mesh electrodes as the catalyst, a brief charge from a 9 V battery to form hydrogen and oxygen by electrolysis, and a voltmeter to show the electricity produced when the gases recombine; the kit contains enough materials for five demonstrations.

Teaching energy chemistry with the fuel cell
The demonstration links electrolysis and fuel cells: energy is put in to split water, then recovered as electricity when hydrogen and oxygen recombine, which supports lessons on electrochemistry, redox, energy changes and hydrogen as a clean fuel.
- Electrochemistry lessons on electrolysis and fuel cells
- Energy changes and redox in secondary and college chemistry
- Renewable-energy and green chemistry units
- Science exhibitions on clean fuels
