If it is a commercially produced water/air rocket, follow the instructions exactly. They will tell you how much you need.
If you made it yourself from a plastic bottle, you should perform a series of experiments to see how much water gives the best altitude.
BTW, there is no fuel in these rockets. Water is the propellant that "pushes" on the rocket as it leaves the nozzle. Air pressure pushes the water out the nozzle.

What element is extracted from oil and natural gas?
Most of the hydrogen used by industry, as rocket fuel, and for fuel cell powered cars is extracted from oil and natural gas. This actually makes the supposedly "clean" fuel cell powered car pretty much as polluting as ordinary cars (as far as carbon emissions are concerned). It would be much better if the hydrogen was extracted by electrolysis of water using electricity from nuclear power, hydroelectric, wind, etc. sources instead!

Why are fuel cells used on the space shuttle instead of batteries?
Two reasons:Weight. Batteries are heavier per energy unit than fuel cells.Capacity. Fuel cells can store much more energy than batteries.As a bonus, the weight for the fuel cell fuel reduces the weight of another required consumable: water. The "exhaust" of fuel cells is pure water which astronauts can drink.

Why would the discovery of ice at the moons poles be important to future space flights?
Ice means water, water means hydrogen. and hydrogen can be used as rocket fuel. Refueling on the moon would be much easier than carrying that extra fuel up from Earth.
