One electrode produces hydrogen bubbles and the other produces oxygen,
but it doesn't generally bubble off. Instead, it combines with some of the

try to keep it on the electrode and not in the water. Wipe it off now and
Leo, use Distilled Water Only and be sure your container is clean

are 20DC, rods are 3-4 apart. I realize this is an elementary question,
but my name is Watson, not Sherlock. Any suggestion?
