Ivan and Ken et al, The following is VERY interesting. "Ole Bob" has been fighting a problem in regards to "introduce Ag+ cations into water, without adding anions." When I contacted a very brilliant industrial chemist about a problem that I have with HVAC ARC CS being very low on pH, and told him how I was making it with only "DW and silver," his very first question was "what is the anion"? There has to be one!!
The anion just happens to be nitrogen that is dissolved in the water, and it is almost impossible to remove it. Hence NO3 is formed!!!!!!!!. I have tried vacuum boiling of DW, boiling with heat and covering with Argon and using Argon shields during transfer and brewing and what do I get 20 PPM of NO3 !!!!!!! > The definition of a dissolved salt requires both cations and anions. > If Eniva can introduce Ag+ cations into the water, without adding > anions, then this is not a dissolved salt.

If there is an Ag+ cation then there absolutely must be a XX- anion, or the laws of chemistry have been repelled. You are right Ivan 2+2 is coming out 3 1/2 !! "Ole Bob" >
