In a fuel cell,methanol is used as fuel and oxygen gas is used as an oxidizer. The reaction is
$CH_3OH_{(l)} + \frac{3}{2} O_{2(g)} \rightarrow CO_{2(g)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}$
At $298 \ K$,standard Gibbs energies of formation for $CH_3OH_{(l)}$,$H_2O_{(l)}$,and $CO_{2(g)}$ are $-166.2$,$-237.2$,and $-394.4 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ respectively. If the standard enthalpy of combustion of methanol is $-726 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,the efficiency of the fuel cell will be .......... $\%$.
