How to produce hydrogen and oxgen from water|Electrolysis of water|How to make hydrogen and oxygen gas
In this video I am going to show you electrolysis of water .(oxygen and hydrogen)
Electrolysis of water is the decomposition of water into oxygen(1/2) and hydrogen gas(1) due to the flow of an electric current. It is also called water splitting.
An electrical power source(DC 9V) is connected to two electrodes(cathode and anode)which are placed in the water. Hydrogen will appear at the cathode (the negatively charged electrode), and oxygen will appear at the anode (the positively charged electrode). Assuming ideal faradaic efficiency, the amount of hydrogen generated is twice the amount of oxygen, and both are proportional to the total electrical charge conducted by the solution.
Chemical Reaction
Cathode (reduction): 2 H2O(l) + 2e− → H2(g) + 2 OH−(aq)
Anode (oxidation): 2 OH−(aq) → 1/2 O2(g) + H2O(l) + 2 e−
Overall reaction: 2 H2O(l) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g)
Things Needed
Water
Beaker
Test tubes
Graphite rods
9V battery
Sulphuric acid (few drops)
