Question 2 In an attempt to understand the mechanism of the depolarization process in a fuel cell, an electro-kinetic mo
Question 2 In an attempt to understand the mechanism of the depolarization process in a fuel cell, an electro-kinetic model for mixed oxygen-methanol current on platinum was developed in the laboratory at FAMU. A very simplified model of the reaction developed suggests a functional relation in an integral form. To find the time required for 50% of the oxygen to be consumed, the time, 7(s) is given by -0.61x10-6 T = = 6.73x + 4.3025 x 10-7 dx 2.316 × 10-¹¹x 1.22x10-6 2.1. Using Trapezoidal rule write a code to find the time required for 50% of the oxygen to be consumed (NB don't use the trapz command). (15) 2.2. Use the trapz function to solve the above equation and find the time elapsed. (7) [22 marks]
