The process of separating hydrogen (and oxygen) from water is not a matter of getting to a particular temperature. A different process called hydrolysis uses electricity to accomplish the separation.

What is used to separate hydrogen and oxygen?

Electrolysis, the passing of electric current through water will separate the water into oxygen and hydrogen molecules.


At what temperature H2O breaks in H2 and O2?

Water (H2O) does not spontaneously break down into hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) at a specific temperature. Instead, water can be broken down into hydrogen and oxygen gas through a process called electrolysis, which involves passing an electric current through water to separate the hydrogen and oxygen molecules.

Is using electricity to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen a chemical change?

Yes, using electricity to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen is a chemical change because it involves breaking the bonds between the hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water molecules to form separate hydrogen and oxygen molecules. This process is known as electrolysis.


How can hydrogen be added to water?
