That is where hydrogen fuel cells come into the picture. Rather than depending on a foreign countries oil‚ to provide fuel‚ businesses today should look to hydrogen as an alternative fuel source. The United States is too dependent on foreign oil. If something were to happen‚ like another war with the Middle East‚ we would not have any oil to power our cars or heat our homes. That’s why hydrogen is the answer. Everybody could make their own fuel for their country by creating hydrogen plants and buying

re-fuel‚ launch‚ educate and distribute?) Benefits. No pollution: A great benefit of using Hydrogen fuel cells is that they give off no pollution‚ and in fact produce pure water as a byproduct. Even though currently engineers are concentrating on producing hydrogen from natural gas‚ it will be for a short-term. Scientists are planning to have renewable environmentally-friendly ways of producing hydrogen in the future. Efficiency: Fuel cells generate electrical power quietly and efficiently. Approximate

Lab Report An enzyme is a protein that speeds up the rates of chemical reactions. They recognize‚ bind‚ and change specific reactants. They do not change so they can catalyze the same reaction again and again. Activation energy is the amount of energy needed in order to begin a chemical reaction. A Catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change. Catalysts are substances or a substance that configures another substance

Enzyme Activity Lab Objective: To determine the effect of temperature‚ PH and enzyme concentration on catalase activity. Introduction: What is an enzyme and how the enzyme works. Any of a group of complex proteins or conjugated proteins thatare produced by living cells and act as catalysts in specific biochemical reactions. The system in which enzymes work is often referred to as the ’lock and key’ system it’s where the enzyme and the substrate lock together. The substrate then unlocks into

Potential and kinetic energy is what makes the roller coaster move. What some people may not realize is that the roller coaster has no engine. When you’re going down hill they use different types of wheels to keep the ride smooth. A roller coaster is not pulled by cable. The 3 types of wheels are running wheels which guides the roller coaster‚ Friction
