I'm a physics student trying to do a project on fuels cells. One thing I don't get is, when the atom goes through the electr-- whatever, how does it separate into electrons and protons.
I thought the only way to separate electrons from the nucleus is by extreme heat and pressure, like that of nuclear fusion. Obviously nuclear fusion isn't occurring in a fuel cell.
My only thought is that the electro-- whatever, is a type of filter, but then again, you just can't filter out electrons.
:uhh: :uhh:
