In 1896, Antonio Henri Becquerel (1852-1908) made a new type of battery and used a carbon rod. Ludwig Mond and Carl Langer produced a gas-powered battery and called their system a fuel cell in 1889. In 1889, Ludwig Mond (1838-1909) and assistant Carl Langer described their experiments with a hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell that attained 6 A (ampere) per square foot at 0.73 V. Mond and Langer s cell used electrodes of thin, perforated platinum. 

In 1890, Ludwig Mond, Carl Langer, and Friedrich Quincke (24) announced the discovery of nickel carbonyl, Ni(CO)4. The unusual properties of this carbonyl stimulated a great deal of interest and investigation into other carbonyls and in 1908, Mond, Hirtz, and Cowap (25) described cobalt carbonyl. They found (26) by cryoscopic measure-...

Ludwig Mond (1839-1909) was a chemist who spent most of his career developing soda manufacturing and nickel refining. In 1889, Mond and his assistant Carl Langer performed numerous experiments using a coal-derived gas. They used electrodes made of thin, perforated platinum, and had many difficulties with liquid electrolytes. They achieved 6 A per square foot (the area of the electrode) at 0.73 V. 

Fifty years later, Ludwig Mond and Carl Langer (1889) conducted relatively successful experiments concerning the generation of electric current with...
