IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. Take care with the hot water to not hurt yourself.
2. Wearing waterproof gloves and glasses are highly recommended.
3. Take care with the fan to not hurt yourself.
4. After each use clean the anode plate to keep its best performance for later use.
5. Store the anode plate in a dry place.
Prepare the water salted solution:
1. Weight 15 mg of salt using a balance. In the gradual container, put the salt and add 25ml of hot water. The
water temperature should be around 90°C (363 K).
2. With a spoon, mix the container contents until the salt have been entirely melted into the water. Sometimes a
small part of the salt stays in the solid state.
Experiment 1 : Create electricity from water salted solution
Preparing the fuel cell:
a. Take the salt water fuel cell out of the packaging.
b. In the same time press the lower part of the blue components you can see on each side of the fuel cell.
By this way you can remove the fuel cell anode from the fuel cell tank.
c. Insert the fuel cell cathode into the slot on its basis.

d. With the syringe, suck up some salted solution
and pour it into the cathode tank in order to fill ¾
of the maximum tank level (above 15mL).
e. Take the metal made anode and clips
it into the cathode as show below.
