Water comprises for more than 70% of the Earth that we live on, and we use water for various purposes in our lives. We all know that water has the power to generate energy, but most of us are unaware that this energy can be used for running cars on water as well. Mention the word 'hydro-electric power', and people would form a picture in their minds about a huge dam with water speedily flowing to rotate the turbine for the production of electricity. This is true, but water can also produce energy in another way.
As you all know, water (H2O) contains two hydrogen and one oxygen atom. But you must be unaware that Oxy-hydrogen is composed in a similar manner (H2O). At room temperature, oxy-hydrogen is in the gaseous state, while water is in the liquid state. Oxy-hydrogen, used mainly in big industries for the purpose of melding glass, metal, etc. is highly inflammable in nature.
Having the same elements, it is very much possible to convert water into oxy-hydrogen. But what's it use? Let's find out.
Water can be converted into oxy-hydrogen by the process of electrolysis. As oxy-hydrogen will be highly inflammable when combined with gasoline, it can give additional energy for running cars on water, which would increase the mileage of the car as well. Though it is not possible to run a car only on water, but it certainly brings down the gas requirement by a huge extent.
Running cars on water has been popular for quite some time now. Studies have been conducted to find how water-emitted hydrogen helps in acting as fuel for cars. Experiments to find this out have succeeded, and it has been possible to run cars on water.
But for pure political reasons, this information hasn't been revealed to the public, since oil makes the government rich enough. In fact, it has been the production of oil and its export that has made a couple of nations very powerful. Given the rising price of oil, if this technology is revealed to the public, demand for oil, and thus, government revenues, would come crashing down. Not only will the oil companies suffer because of this, the oil producing countries will suffer due to their heavy losses as well.
As mentioned earlier, water has two hydrogen parts and one oxygen part. Hydrogen is emitted when electric current is passed through water. This hydrogen can be used for running cars on water. It must be mentioned here that only water cannot help in running a car due to the huge amount of electricity required, so a mixture of water and gasoline is needed. So using water for running cars will reduce your cost, apart from giving you other benefits.
