Hydrogen and Oxygen Gas Created In Water Step by Step Part 1

[fuzzynostic]

lower voltages mean lower resistance = lower loss

[bevenloneydesigns]

Answers I managed to figure out. from searching Internet land

Low Voltage in DC

(usually 12volts cause the power supply will be easier to get hold of)

Amps being drawn will depend on Plate size and electrolyte strength

[bevenloneydesigns]

Hi have same question about ideal volts/amps and stainless steel plate sizes (by surface area), how much electrolyte to add, will be doing own research, since didn't find specific answers here.First widening search deeper into internet land and if still lacking information into my own experiments (starting small and increasing slowly in size, and hope to report back, and maybe even upload my own video.

copper pipe works or not plz reply

[hahahahahablaify]

how can you trap the gases separately

[JRhalo14]

its funny that some of the most flammable gases combine to become something that is good at putting out fire

[Innomen]

@JRhalo14

My dad told me once that there was a rocket fuel fire on a base he lived on and it got so hot they had to stop spraying it with water because it was cracking the water and exploding. He did not see this himself, it was part of base lore. So who knows, but still, seems kinda plausible.

[JRhalo14]

@Innomen well both hydrogen and oxygen are used in rocket fuel as liquid form and oxygen is needed for fire hydrogen is just another element that is flammable

[Innomen]

@JRhalo14

Right but the question is do we posses a rocket fuel that is capable of burning hot enough in an uncontrolled setting to actually crack water into these components fast enough for them to then catch fire. The problem with a military base is kind of like technologically attacking a SciFi movie. You can always say "classified/unknown technology" to get around "no known source." Bottom line is I didn't see it so I can't prove or disprove. Still, interesting idea.

[JRhalo14]

@Innomen well at least its not as hard as understanding anti-matter (look it up)

[scott1506]

why baking soda

[g25a25c]

one more thing use graphite it won't corrode

[thepryest]

whoops not aluminum but stainless steel

[thepryest]

so does the baking soda make the water acidic so the electrons flow better to each other? isn't there a pure aluminum that you can use that gives better results? i can't remember the exact name of the aluminum but apparently it gives you better results. tell me if im wrong though

[DonPHustla]

it's a simple electrode... the battery is doing the same exact thing, except it's not as dangerous

stick your finger in the water...lol

[GaGirlie777]

Gas prices going back up.  We need an energy alternative.

[Jdlifsey]

Wouldn't you want to collect the O2 and H2?

Wouldn't you experiment with a hoffman apparatus and a car battery?

How much electricity (volts, watts, amps, etc) would be needed to separate one (and then two and then three) gallon of H2O into O2 and H2 in an hour?

[jasanpahaf]

what would happen if you touch the water?

[panefuldeath]

you would get a shock.  thats it.

[pjckac1]

To: jasanpahaf

No Shock

[Kanderion]

Does the voltage increase production?

[terry653218]

its not the voltage i think... its the baking soda in other words the "electrolyte" (i think)

[tTatmosT]

Great job 5/5! but is there a way to separate the oxygen from the hidrogen?

[pjckac1]

You would have to separate the negative and positive so that the gases do not mix using a separator all the way to the top of your chamber where the gases escape separately. This is what I have seen on the Internet and have heard from other individuals separating the hydrogen and oxygen gas.

[tTatmosT]

ah ok so I would need two pieces of stainless stell (one attached to the negative n the other to the positive)... thanks!

[g25a25c]

@pjckac1 did u add any salt? if so its not oxygen gas ur getting its chlorine gas

[eatarose]

The silver pipe most likely is a chrome bathroom drain pipe; it's just a steel pipe with chrome on it. The other piece you have is aluminum; it's a pipe connector for EMT or an electrician's conduit pipe, looks like a half inch connector to me. Of course, you know what the copper pipe is made of?

[EgyptianKings6]

Galvanized Not aluminum. all electrical metal pieces conduit are galvanized steel.

[eatarose]

Ive been an electrician for 15 years; I know that those connectors are made of 100% aluminum. Not galvanized steel. If you doubt me, bring a magnet to your local hardware store, ask the clerk for some EMT pipe connectors, he might give you two types, one is galvanized, the other is aluminum, just like the ones shown in this video. The magnet will stick to steel, not the aluminum ones.

[EgyptianKings6]

True there are 2 types indeed. I guess every state is a bit different. Where I live most electricians use the steel ones. Ive not really seen many of the aluminum ones. I do believe you. I do alot of electrical myself. I co-own an hvac business so thats part of our job. But here if it even looks like a recycable metal ppl steal it. Rooftop or ground mount doesn't concern them. Maybe thats why lol.

[pjckac1]

The bubbles are hydrogen and oxygen gas as explained in the video. This is not boiling water as you would see on the cooking stove. Try your own experiment with baking soda and a12v battery and two wires and two screws. Hook one wire to positive and the other wire to negative and put the screws close together in the water without touching with baking soda. Watch the bubbles and light it with a lighter and you tell me what you have. Be safe, because you're dealing with explosive energy.

[football8896]

whats ut suppose 2 do

just bubble

[EgyptianKings6]

(lmao)the bubbles are the good part. So yea it bubbles. Its taking the O2 out of the liquid, and the hydrogen. those gases burn. ppl do this to get clean fuel instead of using petro.

[bomckwawa]

hahahahahah if your serious i am sorry but that is a little humerous....but that is a pretty good question

[caecae24]

You did a great job. Thanks!
