  • thats not a rocket

  • @jeguarg  It operates more like a mortar I agree with you.

  • If you add lye or salt to the water it goes much faster.

  • That rust stuff means you used coper / iron. or your stainless steal isn't good, so far i got brown water when attempting to make hydrogen on a small scale. But now that i saw you video, your idea is good. Ps, dont worrie about the hydrogen escaping... Its lighter then air so it will get stuck in the top of the bottle :P

  • I could rust to make thermite :D

  • u can also do it directly in the 110V AC, much faster... and cooler.

  • Zink is not safe to touch, you will get zink poising over a long time. Zink will cause all sorts of nerve disorders in the human body, you should not touch and form of zink.

    Hydrogen will iginite in a Vacume, NO OxyGen required.

  • Chemistry ROCKW

  • @TheSimpsons1488 The best solution would be to use propane and oxygen. It's easier, and is just as effective.

  • @Idontknow134 But is more dangerous.

  • @TheSimpsons1488 Yes, you can make hydrogen with HCl and Al. In order for it to ignite inside of a bottle, there has to be oxygen with the hydrogen. For ideal ignition, you need two parts hydrogen per every part oxygen. To work the best, the concentration of oxygen has to be much higher than what is in the air, but if you were to correctly mix the ratio of hydrogen produced with oxygen from a concentrated source (oxygen concentrator or oxygen cylinder), it would work just as well.

  • great you just armed a bunch of morons with underwater electricity and and an explosive gas. hats off to you.

  • @coldlogic1 Hey, i'm not a moron. 

  • @HALOFREAK9715 still alive? then no your not.

  • did you say keep it in for 5 min or for 50 min?

  • i'd use stainless steel wall plates instead. then you won't have that nasty gunk. I just uploaded a video of my hydrogen rocket. check it out if you want

  • is it okay to spray methylated spirits or white spirit as fuel as its as combustable?

  • wow.. explode!! now try this out.. its all about explosion!!!

    1> Backing Soda + Water inside a coke bottle

    2> Calcium Carbide+water (canon)

    3> Hydrogen goes BOOM!

    4> Diet coke + mentos(rocket)

  • You mean toilet bowl cleaner and tin foil? Hmm, i never looked it up but i always thought it just reacted with the cleaner to make a gas that blows the bottle up.

  • toilet bowl cleaner and tin foil is gay

    30% hydrochloric acid and aluminium foil, tin wont work

    it creats hydrogen gas way way easyer try it..

  • great video thank you

  • oh noes u dont like dr. pepper? its my destiny just like coke!

  • i don't really understand the alternating plates thing, could you please explain?

  • oh now i understand, sorry

  • lol your good sorry youtube isn't emailing me my comments so i don't know whos talkin.

  • thats awesome it goes so well

  • Any ideas on another ignition source besides a starter for a grill? Don't want to be tearing apart our BBQ grill :D

  • u can buy them at home depot

  • You can get electronic ignitors which use a small current to set of a very small pop which would do the trick you can get them off ebay the are used in rockets

  • Take apart a click lighter (not the ones which have the flint)

  • the cat :)

    What about training her to be an astronaut?!

  • good project...but you dont "alternate the switch" nor the plates no wonder production was so low. use nylon washers, and go +nnnnn- or better +nnnnnn- hooking potential only on the two outside plates unless you want waste

  • What i did mean to say was "Alternate and Switch" lol same thing. So,

    Plate1 ------ is +

    Plate2 ------ is -

    PLate4 ------ is +

    and so forth...

    But i didn't use nylon washers i used rubber grommets, so i guess using washers would have been a better idea.

  • lol plate 3 not 4
