A device that converts the chemical energy from a fuel into electricity through a chemical reaction
Real World Example
Imagine trying to charge your phone when you're out and about, but all you have is a portable battery pack. Just like this battery pack stores energy and releases it to power your phone, a fuel cell stores chemical energy and converts it into electricity to power devices. In this analogy, the fuel cell is like the battery pack, the chemical reactions inside the fuel cell are like the stored power being released, and the electricity generated is akin to the energy that charges your phone, both serving to keep your devices running.
