← ScienceWhich failure decreases fuel cell efficiency when using high hydrogen pressure?
A)Gas permeation reduces membrane selectivity✓
B)Recombination lowers hydrogen concentration
C)Oxidation boosts reaction performance
D)Electrolyte dryout creates uniform conductivity
💡 Explanation
Gas permeation through thinner polymeric membranes increases at high pressure, therefore hydrogen molecules diffuse across; this lowers the fuel cell efficiency, rather than performance increasing due to proper hydrogen reactions.
