When you pass the current through the salt water, the bubbles are formed by electrolysis of water, creating hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen gas (O2). The yellow colour is caused by a buildup of chlorine (Cl2) in the solution from the electrolysis of the salt itself. The electrolysis of salt also creates sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in the solution, which then dissociates into sodium ions (Na+) and hydroxide (OH-), turning the solution alkaline. *Put simply, that water is poisonous as fuck now*.

[@0xBADFECE5]

I started following your work a couple weeks ago, and I know this is an old video, but I thought I'd still offer my perspective as someone with a degree in chemistry, even though I was probably bottom of my class. My initial concern was that you might be electrolytically making chlorine by oxidizing the chloride ions in the table salt, but upon a closer look, it seems like only the copper wire was getting oxidized into insoluble copper salts (copper oxide, probably). In general, you definitely don't want metals entering your bloodstream through a cut, even though it was a minor cut and probably just tiny amounts of copper here. The sparks you saw were probably from hydrogen being ripped from water molecules, reduced into gas, and then spontaneously reacting with oxygen being simultaneously generated. I think I speak for most chemists when I say we don't do electrolysis on AC, because it would make both reactions happen at both electrodes, and if you were in fact generating oxygen and hydrogen at both electrodes, that would explain why you saw those orange sparks, signature of hydrogen combustion. I'm not sure what would cause one wire to be consumed faster than the other, but it probably has something to do with whether the wire was neutral, experiencing less swing in voltage, or live, experiencing whatever 120 AC gives it.

2:58 "The resistance is getting higher for some reason" --> multi-meters apply a DC voltage and measure the current (through the voltage measure of a shunt resistor) and calculate the resistance through ohms law. The problem with solutions is that, with DC voltage, the ions go to the terminals that apply the voltage (positive ions go to negative terminal and vice-versa) and thus decrease the conductivity - phenomenon known as "polarization" :) (With AC voltage the ions go back and forth with the oscillations of the voltage and thus the polarization doesn't occur)

[@nwsteg2610]

Basically, the positive/negative ions gather on the negative/positive probes, effectively causing a higher voltage drop, making it seem like the water has an increasing resistance?

I know I am a bit late but here is an explanation of the experiment where you have salt and water and electricity. (I hope it is right xD.) If you dissolve table salt (sodium (I) chloride) in water, positively charged sodium ions and negatively charged chloride ions are formed. If you now put electricity into the water, the two ions become atoms again. Sodium is now formed as a solid on the negatively charged cable and chlorine is formed as a liquid on the positively charged cable. The chlorine then spreads in the salt water, which is then only water with sodium and chlorine, and gives it a yellow color. Sorry because of my English, it's only English from school😉.

Isn't that basically what electrolysis is?

[@MrPacman64]

Yes, that is exactly what that is

[@davidzed3274]

+MrPacman64 Well, if you want any products then you would use DC, not AC.

[@MrPacman64]

David Zed well, technically you should still get products, if you use AC power for electrolysis of water, instead of getting H and O, you get H2 O, also known as hydroxy gas as an example of why one would use AC.

[@davidzed3274]

Well, depends on what type of products you want, if the product you want is a solid then it will just get split into the reactants as the polarity changed.

[@MrPacman64]

David Zed* *well* * yea of course is depends on what you want, you obviously couldn't electroplate with AC for instance, or if you were trying to get a solid out, you might have a problem with that. Its also nice to have a conversation without a massive shitstorm, so that's cool too.

[@TheAussieStig30]

A friend of mine works at a mining operation as an electrician. He said that they run pure water through machines as coolant and it passes through 3 phase (Australia - 720v) without a problem, but they have to change the water out once a week as it picks up minerals via electrolysis and becomes conductive. They run a meter on the pumps and must change it before it gets to a certain amount of resistance. He said even using tap water meets their spec but must be changed a lot sooner. Pretty interesting.

[@chrisbuttino4098]

Gimme Motörhead Til I’m Dead nice name and profile image. Motörhead fucken rocks

[@nocosttoogreat]

Here’s what happened when he put the two wires in the salt water: Electrolysis occurred, the wire closest to him was the anode (positive electrode) and the wire furthest from him was the cathode (negative electrode). Both wires were bubbling a lot, this is because the anode was giving off chlorine gas from the salt, and the cathode was giving off hydrogen gas from the water, and inside the solution there was sodium hydroxide forming (probably should have washed your fingers after sticking it in there) The reason why the anode wire was completely destroyed was because the copper in it dissolved into the solution during electrolysis and reformed on the cathode where it was reduced, which could of been the reason (or one of them) for the brown-red colour in the solution

[@millet3814]

Cathode? Anode? Wasn't he using ac?

[@nocosttoogreat]

n millet yes but I think the anode and cathode keeps switching between electrodes (or the wires) as it is AC rather than DC

"Expecting it to zap me to death"

[@randycny]

I think some of the danger with Sinks and Tubs is that the drain may be grounded (if not PVC) so that may impact it. Also, I'm curious as to the conductance of things like soaps, bubble baths, etc. that might be in standing water in a bathroom. I've also heard of people getting electrocuted from touching non-GFCI fixtures with a wet floor. It ended up that the wet floor had a grounded furnace vent in it. I guess the trick is to only use Pex/PVC in your bathrooms and always use GFCI. Love ElectroBOOM's channel. Always educational and he zaps himself so you don't have too. lol

[@benchong373]

keep in mind electricity effects the salt too. probably should be wearing a gas mask

[@wiggletumster5267]

The chlorine remains in solution, if it were bubbling out, he'd be dead.

[@wiggletumster5267]

nicholas lang Maybe, we only see a small section of the room so we'll have to see. I've heard a lot of stories of chlorine filling large spaces in short amounts of time, maybe its just a smaller concentration.

[@CoolAsFreya]

Zer0 hydrogen and oxygen gas (two molecules of hydrogen to one molecule of oxygen, or 1:4 ratio by weight)

Nope, unfortunately electrolysis only works with DC. Mains AC power will only create a very dangerous "yet efficient" water heater.

I am an electrical engineer and I was dying through the entire video. On the other hand, I wonder what would happen if you held onto a ground wire while doing this. Probably make it much more dangerous though.

[@ElectroBOOM]

+BAMFWrangler That's right. The electricity would run through my body. Not preferable!

[@NathanielManzi]

+Josh Langton This

[@Azrudi]

+Josh Langton I imagined it was safe and rationally it seemed safe but I still cringe and curl into a ball when someone moves a body part close to an AC conductor. And also, that experiment is not entirely accurate because his feet are insulated, meaning what he's feeling is not a reflection of the real thing if someone else were to accidentally do the same.

[@Marty1fatbstard]

+ElectroBOOM Amazing demonstration. I to work with electric. Very aware of current path and paths of least resistance which is why I beg to differ over the ground wire question. If the source of electricity is from the mains and there is nothing connected to the ground at the source transformer or through any other equipment within that installation then there is no way current can flow through you to ground. This I believe is the case in much of Europe and the US. Here in UK where most distribution transformers and generators are earthed one side of a phase (or center tapped on 3 phase) you would in effect create one wire with a 0 ref to ground and the other being at 110V (or 220-230 in europe) to ground. This is why Grounding (Earthing) is so important. If in your experiment you was to test each wire to ground 1st, .. it would reveal what the max potential difference would be. My guess is if you have a center tapped earth you would only have 55 Volts it would be detectible / felt but probably tolerable. If my Balls where half the size of yours I might be tempted to try it !! Love your work !!
