A) It’s been said from multiple sources online that “Using water's density and relative atomic populations, it is estimated by a mass balance that approximately 2.38 gallons of water are consumed as a feedstock to produce 1 kg of hydrogen gas (14.13 liters), assuming no losses.” B) However, 1 Gallon of water is said to contain approximately 4,707 liters of hydrogen.

How can both statements be correct under normal atmospheric conditions, since even with 80% efficiency of current PEM electrolyzers the first statement (A) is nowhere near the +4,000 liters of the second approximation (B)?

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.

if it's not useful, feel free to report for mistake in answer.

in the analysis of systems that involve fluid flow, we frequently encounter the combination of properties u and pv.
