Q76 / 180 · NEET 2015 (Phase 1) · Chemistry

A device that converts energy of combustion of fuels like hydrogen and methane, directly into electrical energy is known as:

  • Correct answer
    A
    Fuel cell
  • B
    Electrolytic cell
  • C
    Dynamo
  • D
    Ni-Cd cell

Solution

A fuel cell is a device that converts the energy of combustion of fuels like hydrogen and methane, directly into electrical energy Electrolytic cell converts electrical energy into chemical energy. Dynamo is an electrical generator that produces direct current with the use of a commutator.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
