Consider the following statements pertaining to fuel cells :-
$(a)$ Hydrogen-oxygen fuel cells make use of concentrated $KOH$ solution as an electrolyte and porous graphite impregnated with platinum as electrodes.
$(b)$ The efficiency of a fuel cell is less than unity due to polarization at electrodes and the resistance offered by the electrode and the electrolyte.
$(c)$ The electrical work,assuming the cell to be working reversibly,may be represented as $-\Delta G = W_{\text{electrical}} = -\Delta H + T\Delta S$.
Which of the above statements are correct?
