A solar cell is a device which changes sunlight into electricity. A more technically term for a solar cell is a photovoltaic cell. The term “photo” derives from the Greek word for “light,” and the term “voltaic” comes from the word “volt” which means “electrical force.” A “cell” is a small receptacle or container containing electrodes which generate power. Thus, …

Millions of Americans are struggling to make ends meet during this economic crunch that we are in. There is one thing though, that many of them are neglecting. Managing fuel cost. Did you know that the average American who drives 15,000 miles per year will spend over $2000 on fuel this year? And the fact is, there is a couple …

It is said that Hydrogen cars are the way of the future. Today, the world is crippled by its need for oil, and its dependency on the Middle East for those fuels.

As a freshman in high school, I failed chemistry class due to an extreme disinterest in the entire subject. I do recall a demonstration in which the teacher hooked a large one and a half volt battery to a glass and wire electrolyzer that transformed water into separated hydrogen and oxygen. I would later learn that commercial hydrogen and oxygen producers also used this method in an inefficient manner that requires more energy than the fuel produced can generate through combustion.
