Can water decompose?
Yes water or H20 can decompose into H2 and O2 molecules. When driven by an electric current this process is called electrolysis. When driven by very high temperatures this process is called thermolysis.
Is decomposing water by passing an electric current through it a chemical or physical change?
Exploding of potassium metal when placed in water
What do you use to boil water?
a stove! :D
What makes hot water hot?
The heat from the stove makes hot water because like the food when you use the stove it makes it hot to. right?
Which type of chemical reaction takes place when electric current is passed through water?
The process is called electrolysis, and it usually results in a decomposition reaction. For example, passing an electric current through water results in the reaction 2H2O --> 2H2 + O2.
What is the best brand for electric water heaters?
Some of the best rated brands of electric stove heaters include the Dimplex Electric Flame stove, the Merlin Electric Heater Fireplace and the Bionare fireplace Heater stove.
How long does it take for 45 mL of water to boil on high?
It depends. Do you have a gas or electric stove. If you have electric about 2-3 minutes. If you have a gas stove about 4 minutes. Hope this answers your question
What uses gas in the house?
a stove, if it's not electric water heater, if it's not electric
How is heat transferred to water in a water heater?
In a gas water heater: The gas flame warms the water, exactly the same way as a gas stove burner does for a pan of water on the stove. In an electric water heater, an element - same as an electric range element, but a different shape - heats up from electrical current, and transfers that heat to the water.
Do electric water heaters have pilot lights?
No, electric water heaters do not need a pilot light. The heating element is heated by an electric current (similar to the 'eye' on an electric stove or the heaters in a toaster). When the circuit is completed, electric current flows through the element, and it gets hot, and when the electricity is turned off, the element starts cooling. In a gas water heater, the pilot light is a flame, which is always burning. When it's time to heat up the water, the main gas valve is opened, and the pilot light ignites the gas, so that the main burner heats up.
What are three examples of heat conduction?
Boiling water on an electric stove,Putting a spoon in a cup of hot teaIce in tea
What are the advantages and disadvantages of electric geyser?
adv; no need of heating water on stove all the time so no wastage of gas

When does the water cycles start?
Water cycle starts by the process of evaporation. It is the first step of water cycle.
What is a process of decomposition?
The process of decomposition of an electrolyte, by passing an electric current from an outside source through it, is known as electrolysis. For example, when an electric current is passed through acidified water, water is decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen.
What can one do with a stove top kettle?
Stove top kettles are primarily used to heat water for tea or hot chocolate. An electric kettle works the same way however the risk of shock is a constant threat because water and electricity do not work well together.
What type of energy is used to heat water?
Several types of energy can be used to heat water. Electric energy can heat water, like in a coffee maker. Chemical energy can be used as in a gas stove.
