I have an oral presentation to do on Metal hydrides as an alternative energy source. I tried to do some research on metal hydrides and all I come up with are published scientific research papers and people selling cells of metal hydrides.
I don’t want you to do my homework for me; I want to do it myself. But, could someone give me like an introduction or overview of Why/how is metal hydrides an energy source?
If you’re in the market for used auto sales, Austin’s DriveTime dealerships have a wide selection of vehicles to choose from. We know that it can be very difficult to get financed for a vehicle when you have poor credit, but at DriveTime we focus on getting people with bad credit into a used auto. Other dealerships may claim they can sell you a car no matter what your credit history is, but all too often this turns out to be an empty promise. That’s why you can count on DriveTime to find you a used car that you will be proud to drive!
Thanks and 10 points for best answer!
From what little I know, they’re a powerful type of battery. Pretty much any chemical reaction that can be done in a sealed container can be used as a battery. It’s a matter of how much energy can be made in a small amount of space.
