[HD] Electrolysis of saltwater (NaCl) with copper electrodes

[rVRoxanne681]

@radumotisan I bought this hair removal product last month and I must say that I am totally overwhelmed with it. How I wish I had found it earlier. I would have saved hundreds of dollars on I had spent on waxing. Best of all, it's cheap! bit.ly\tNxel5

how many amps does that go threw

[toothpick93]

does the NaOH form on the cathode?

[radumotisan]

@toothpick93 yes, as a result of sodium reacting with water. this can be easily illustrated by using a small quantity of phenolphthalein indicator.

er. im doing this right now but all i am getting is hydrogen and copper chloride

[adolffims1]

i did this, but after some time the solution turned blue, and some orange/yellow particules stated forming and flucolating, what are they?

if cl2 is produced, is HCL produced? cl2+h20

if so the hcl can be attacking the copper and forming the orange substance?

if so waht is the orange substance?

thx ^^

[halo4life455]

@adolffims1 same thing happened to me when i let it settle the blue stuff turned clear and the orange stuff settled on the bottom!

@adolffims1

The orange substance is Cu2O.

salt is toixc with hho

[radumotisan]

@dreamyear not quite sure what you mean here.

[dreamyear]

salt electrolysis = Chlorine gas

[radumotisan]

@dreamyear right, there is a warning in video description already, however the quantity released is small.

thanks for watching!

[NOBOX7]

@dreamyear not here , thats hydrogen gas , the metal is reacting with the chlorine thats why you dont see any gas on that side of the device

hsould use alot of baking soda and see the reaction, it make blue crystal form on the electrodes and switching the polarity makes the crystals fall off,,,,, i always run this blueish water in my plasma spark cells, it has different properties than just regular elyte. and differnt breakdown currents.

[radumotisan]

@crob227 well I might do a hydrogen cell out of this. The power supply can provide 250VA.
