In order to build the fuel cell, you need to get several different materials. One foot of platinum coated nickel wire, a 9v battery, a 9v battery clip, transparent tape, a piece of plastic (which will form a bridge), a glass, water and a volt meter. First we cut the wire into two equal parts. We wrap both of them along a nail, so that they are small and efficient. We take the battery clip, and we cut the leads of the cut ends. We twist the bare battery lead wires onto the coiled wire, and attach another two wires to the coiled wire, which we will attach to the volt meter. We tape this Electrode, as it is now called, to the “bridge”, and hang it over water. Make sure that the coiled wire is completely in the water. Fill it with water, and when you are ready attach the battery to the clip to see what happens.
