State whether the following statements are True $(T)$ or False $(F)$ :
$1.$ Fuel cell is a kind of galvanic cell.
$2.$ Coal is used as fuel in fuel cell.
$1.$ Fuel cell is a kind of galvanic cell.
$2.$ Coal is used as fuel in fuel cell.
(A) $1.$ True $(T)$: $A$ fuel cell is a type of galvanic cell that converts the chemical energy of a fuel (like $H_2$) and an oxidant (like $O_2$) directly into electrical energy.
$2.$ False $(F)$: Coal is not used as a fuel in fuel cells. Typically,gases like $H_2$,$CH_4$,or $CH_3OH$ are used as fuels in fuel cells.
$2.$ False $(F)$: Coal is not used as a fuel in fuel cells. Typically,gases like $H_2$,$CH_4$,or $CH_3OH$ are used as fuels in fuel cells.
