- What is a fuel cell and what does it do?
- What is an electrolyzer and, using this device, how can water be broken down to its component elements?
- What can be powered with a fuel cell?
These questions and many others can be answered doing the experiments with the leXsolar-H2 Basic. All experiments are designed in a qualitative way for young students from Elementary and Junior High School. The product is equipped with a reversible PEM-fuel cell combining electrolyzer mode and PEM fuel cell mode in one handy and robust unit.
Note: For using this product you additionally need the leXsolar-Minikit Basic in primary school and the leXsolar-Kit Basic in Junior High School, each of which contains all necessary accessories.
