plitting the hydrogen and oxygen in water is accomplished using a process called “water electrolysis" in which both the hydrogen and oxygen molecules separate into individual gasses via separate “evolution reactions." Each evolution reaction is induced by an electrode in the presence of a catalyst.

2019-07-04 21:09:01 UTC  

you could do that

2019-07-04 21:09:38 UTC  

you just can't make water do something without the inclusion of *something*

2019-07-04 21:10:07 UTC  

voltage

2019-07-04 21:10:26 UTC  

that's still *something*

2019-07-04 21:10:43 UTC  

You spend electricity to make the volatile explosive gas

2019-07-04 21:10:50 UTC  

you detonate it, it turns back to water again

2019-07-04 21:10:59 UTC  

What gas are you talking about?

2019-07-04 21:11:11 UTC  

Electrolysis is easy you can do it at home

2019-07-04 21:11:12 UTC  

Hydrogen gas is very flammable and yields explosive mixtures with air and oxygen. The explosion of the mixture of hydrogen and oxygen is quite loud.

2019-07-04 21:11:43 UTC  

dunno after detonation if you can re make it

2019-07-04 21:12:05 UTC  

IIRC after combustion that is a chemical change, and with chemical changes you can't really get back your reactants after you form the product

2019-07-04 21:12:44 UTC  

I think you might be able to but it’s very hard

2019-07-04 21:13:00 UTC  

Either way, it’s not a secret being hidden from us

2019-07-04 21:13:15 UTC  

Combustion, a chemical reaction between substances, usually including oxygen and usually accompanied by the generation of heat and light in the form of flame.

2019-07-04 21:13:21 UTC  

really really hard to get your reactants back

2019-07-04 21:13:35 UTC  
2019-07-04 21:13:39 UTC  

Come back!

2019-07-04 21:13:47 UTC  

And fight us like men!

2019-07-04 21:13:55 UTC  

And it’s weird to say water can explode. The hydrogen can explode. Saying the water is explosive is just misleading

2019-07-04 21:13:58 UTC  

I hate chemistry not going to lie

2019-07-04 21:14:25 UTC  

This video has a man who knows little about AC transmission. He makes out like sending it a thousand miles has no loss. Flat out false.

2019-07-04 21:14:31 UTC  

?

2019-07-04 21:14:53 UTC  

True, once voltage goes across water, it ceases to be water and becomes 2 distinct gases, Hydrogen and Oxygen

2019-07-04 21:15:10 UTC  

You have unfinished business with the shape debate, Human Sheeple.

2019-07-04 21:15:33 UTC  

Happy fourth

2019-07-04 21:15:38 UTC  

'merica

2019-07-04 21:15:40 UTC  

for what it's worth

2019-07-04 21:15:48 UTC  

you mean the video that i posted ? @Steve Angell

2019-07-04 21:15:52 UTC  

Human sheeple exactly

2019-07-04 21:16:06 UTC  

Yes with Flanagan.

2019-07-04 21:16:22 UTC  

so one of you is against flanagan and the other likes him

2019-07-04 21:16:50 UTC  

this is gonna be interesting

2019-07-04 21:16:53 UTC  

He is correct about DC but not so correct on AC. Yes you can transmit it with powerlines a long way with minimal loss. But not near a thousand miles.

2019-07-04 21:16:56 UTC  

it's a 3hr long video so he says a lot of things

2019-07-04 21:17:02 UTC  

AC will just make heat or light

2019-07-04 21:17:06 UTC  

it won't electrolyze

2019-07-04 21:17:10 UTC  

pulsed DC will however

2019-07-04 21:17:25 UTC  

Pulsed DC is AC.

2019-07-04 21:17:29 UTC  

Nope wrong

2019-07-04 21:17:33 UTC  

Pulsed DC is commonly produced from AC (alternating current) by a half-wave rectifier or a full-wave rectifier.
