Coming from the dissociation (e.g. by electrolysis) of water (H2O, DHMO), the 'hydrogen' test tube is filled twice as much as the 'oxygen' is. However, coming from the dissociation of pure hydrogen peroxide (H2O2, DHDO) they are filled the same volume.


What are negative effects of dihydrogen monoxide?

Dihydrogen monoxide (DHMO) is one of the many names for water. The name has been used in many "technically true" but misleading statements in pranks and hoaxes. Examples of such statements about water include,* Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities. * Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage. * Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects. * DHMO is a major component of acid rain. * Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns. * Contributes to soil erosion. * Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals. * Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits. * Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes. * Found in biopsies of pre-cancerous tumors and lesions. * Given to vicious dogs involved in recent deadly attacks. * Often associated with killer cyclones in the U.S. Midwest and elsewhere, and in hurricanes including deadly storms in Florida, New Orleans and other areas of the southeastern U.S. * Thermal variations in DHMO are a suspected contributor to the El Nino weather effect. NOTE: Dihydrogen Monoxide is the scientific name for H2O, or water. See the wikipedia link below for more information.
