  2. Electrolysis of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolysis_of_water

    Separately pressurised into convenient 'tanks' or 'gas bottles', hydrogen can be used for oxyhydrogen welding and other applications, as the hydrogen / oxygen flame can reach approximately 2,800°C. Water electrolysis requires a minimum potential difference of 1.23 volts , although at that voltage external heat is also required.

  3. Water splitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_splitting

    In thermolysis, water molecules split into hydrogen and oxygen. For example, at 2,200 °C (2,470 K; 3,990 °F) about three percent of all H 2 O are dissociated into various combinations of hydrogen and oxygen atoms, mostly H, H 2, O, O 2, and OH. Other reaction products like H 2 O 2 or HO 2 remain minor. At the very high temperature of 3,000 ...

  4. Sulfur–iodine cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur–iodine_cycle

    Net reaction: 2 H 2 O → 2 H 2 + O 2. The sulfur and iodine compounds are recovered and reused, hence the consideration of the process as a cycle. This S–I process is a chemical heat engine. Heat enters the cycle in high-temperature endothermic chemical reactions 2 and 3, and heat exits the cycle in the low-temperature exothermic reaction 1.

  5. Salt (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(chemistry)

    To ensure that these do not contaminate the precipitated salt, it is important to ensure they do not also precipitate. [11] If the two solutions have hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions as the counterions, they will react with one another in what is called an acid–base reaction or a neutralization reaction to form water. [12]

  6. Sabatier reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sabatier_reaction

    Paul Sabatier (1854-1941) winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1912 and discoverer of the reaction in 1897. The Sabatier reaction or Sabatier process produces methane and water from a reaction of hydrogen with carbon dioxide at elevated temperatures (optimally 300–400 °C) and pressures (perhaps 3 MPa [1]) in the presence of a nickel catalyst.

  7. Water-reactive substances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-reactive_substances

    Magnesium has a mild reaction with cold water. The reaction is short-lived because the magnesium hydroxide layer formed on the magnesium is almost insoluble in water and prevents further reaction. Mg(s) + 2H 2 O(l) Mg(OH) 2 (s) + H 2 (g) [11] A metal reacting with cold water will produce a metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

  8. Oxyacid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxyacid

    An oxyacid, oxoacid, or ternary acid is an acid that contains oxygen.Specifically, it is a compound that contains hydrogen, oxygen, and at least one other element, with at least one hydrogen atom bonded to oxygen that can dissociate to produce the H + cation and the anion of the acid.

  9. Hydronium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydronium

    In chemistry, hydronium (hydroxonium in traditional British English) is the cation [H 3 O] +, also written as H 3 O +, the type of oxonium ion produced by protonation of water.It is often viewed as the positive ion present when an Arrhenius acid is dissolved in water, as Arrhenius acid molecules in solution give up a proton (a positive hydrogen ion, H +) to the surrounding water molecules (H 2 O).
