Q1// 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, T is given by:
