How It Is Used
Fill the container with water, adding a little electrolyte if needed, insert the electrodes and connect them to a low-voltage supply. When the current is switched on, bubbles of gas form at both electrodes as water decomposes into hydrogen and oxygen. Use only low voltage and work under supervision.
