Additional Details
This Horizon Educational Fuel Cell Car Science Kit lets students explore the ideas behind the full-sized fuel cell cars currently being introduced around the world. The reversible PEM fuel cell splits water into oxygen and hydrogen. The hydrogen is then used to power the fuel cell car. Plus, the car drives itself! It’s capable of avoiding obstacles on its own. Serious science and serious fun in one science kit! Includes a solar panel for powering electrolysis, and a complete NGSS aligned experiment guide on CD.
- Clearly demonstrates the science behind electrolysis and splitting water into oxygen and hydrogen.
- Includes solar panel for powering electrolysis, and complete experiment guide on CD.
- Best entry level fuel cell car kit on the market and one of Horizon´s best sellers!
Products being sold are not toys. They are for Educational / Laboratory use only. They are not for use by children 12 and under.
