The usage of dihydrogen is:

chemistry non-metals dihydrogen fuel dihydrogen as a fuel introduction to hydrogen

  1. It acts a a fuel cell

  2. Energy is distributed in the form of dihydrogen

  3. It is economical fuel

  4. All of the above

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Dihydrogen fuel is a zero-emission fuel when burned with oxygen (if one considers water not as an emission) or used in a contained cell. The energy released enables hydrogen to act as a fuel. In an electrochemical cell, that energy can be used with relatively high efficiency.

How many atoms of oxygen are present in the compound $ K _4Al _2 (SO _4) _3.24H _2O? $

chemistry non-metals dihydrogen fuel dihydrogen as a fuel introduction to hydrogen

  1. 40

  2. 36

  3. 32

  4. 31

Show answer
Correct Option: B

Hydrogen gas is:

chemistry non-metals dihydrogen fuel dihydrogen as a fuel introduction to hydrogen

  1. has high molecular weight.

  2. a medium for storage of energy

  3. excellent fuel

  4. both B and C

Show answer
Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Hydrogen is not found in pure form on Earth, however, so it must be produced from other compounds such as natural gas, biomass, alcohols or water. In all cases it takes energy to convert these into pure hydrogen. For that reason, hydrogen is really an energy carrier or storage medium rather than an energy source in itself.

Basic principle of hydrogen economy is:

chemistry non-metals dihydrogen fuel dihydrogen as a fuel introduction to hydrogen

  1. transportation of energy in the form of liquid or gaseous dihydrogen

  2. storage of energy in the form of liquid or gaseous dihydrogen

  3. both $A$ and $B$

  4. none of the above

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The usage of hydrogen as a low-carbon energy source, such as gasoline as a transport fuel, it is referred to as "Hydrogen economy". The basic principles of Hydrogen economy are:-

(i) Storage of energy in the form of liquid or gaseous dihydrogen.
(ii) transportation of energy in the form of liquid or gaseous dihydrogen.
Thus the answer is both (A) and (B).
