Question:

In a hydrogen fuel cell, hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are combined to form water. Write balanced chemical equation describing this reaction.?

A) In a hydrogen fuel cell, hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are combined to form water. Write balanced chemical equation describing this reaction.B) Identify oxidizing and reducing agents.C) Determine # of electrons transferred in balance chemical equation.Can you show me how to do this?

Answer:

2H2+O2→2H2O Hydrogen is the reducing agent Oxygen is the oxidising agent 2×H-O-H -represents covalent bond sharing an electron from each atom.
