Question
Define the following terms:
  1. Limiting molar conductivity.
  2. Fuel cell.
✓

Answer

  1. The molar conductivity when concentration approaches to zero is called limiting molar conductivity.
  2. A fuel cell is a device which converts energy produced during the combustion of fuels like hydrogen, methane, methyl alcohol etc. directly into electrical energy. One such successful fuel cell is hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell.
