Give the electrode reactions occuring at the anode and at the cathode in `H_(2),O_(2),` fuel cell.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

At cathode `:O _(2(g))+2H_(2) O_((l))+4e^(-)to 4OH _((aq))^(-)`
At anode `: 2H_(2(g))+4HO_((aq))^(-)to 4H_(2) O_((l))+4e^(-)`
Overall reaction `: 2H_(2(g))+O_(2(g))to 2H_(2)O_((l))`
