Question 4

An agricultural sensor can be powered by a rechargeable battery or a hydrogen fuel cell. A technician compares what happens inside the battery during charging with what happens inside the fuel cell while it is operating.

Which account is correct?

[1]
A

The external current makes the battery's reaction continue in the same direction, while the fuel cell makes oxygen inside the cell

B

The external current restores the battery's reactants without reversing its reaction, while the fuel cell uses electricity to make its fuel

C

The external current supplies fuel to the battery, while the fuel cell stores fuel and oxygen inside it before use

D

The external current drives the battery's reaction in the opposite direction, while the fuel cell uses fuel and oxygen supplied from outside the cell
