Which mechanism limits the use of molecular hydrogen storage in metal hydrides for vehicles?

A)Endothermic hydrogen desorption kinetics
B)Exothermic hydrogen absorption instability
C)Paramagnetic interference with electronic sensors
D)Isotopic fractionation during cycling

💡 Explanation

When dehydriding metal hydrides to release hydrogen fuel, hydrogen desorption through endothermic reaction proceeds slowly due to heat transfer limitations, thus limiting fuel delivery rate. Therefore, endothermic kinetics limit use, rather than exothermic instability, electronic interference, or isotopic effects which require different material properties.
