KFC Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 I had a bottle that had the consistence of milk hug plastic. It was fill half and half water and hydrogen. I left it to sit for a week at room temp. and half the hydrogen was gone. Did it leek though the plastic or did it turn in to Dihydrogen Dioxide?

akcapr Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 a little bit of it probly dissolved in the water but i think most of it leeked through the plastic. why did you have a jug with those things in them anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdurg Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 VERY little of it would have dissolved in the water as hydrogen is not very water soluble. I can gaurantee you that virtually all of it escaped through the plastic jug or out through the cap. Hydrogen will leach out of virtually everything due to it's very miniscule size.

insane_alien Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 why would it turn into hydrogen peroxide? water is far more stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akcapr Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 it wouldnt plus it would take energy to turn into that. hey i think i just figured out what they guy was trying to do, i bet he was trying to make H2O2 lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[w00t] Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 how do you actually make h2o2, seems rather complicated in a home lab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFC Posted April 22, 2006 Author Share Posted April 22, 2006 Is there any hydrogen left in the bottle and it could not escape from the cap I turned the bottle up side down so that the water blocks the cap for that reason?/. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite your effort to block the cap opening with the liquid, chances are that the hydrogen molecules just managed to "slip out between" the plastic molecules, due to the small molecular size of hydrogen.
