Thanks for correcting me on that Stan. For some
reason I interpreted writings here as meaning the water floated atop the acid in
a seperate layer. Good to know my first notion was correct after
all.
I already understood that the oil filled pod
stopped any water pressure as in your baloon analogy below. Learned that a long
time ago. Drop a barrel totally filled with oil and no air into the ocean and it
will sink to the titanic with no water pressure
affecting it. Water-uncompressable.
Oil-uncompressable. Ergo--no water pressure effect on totally oil filled
container.
But what I do not understand and need help on is
this....
How EXACTLY does that vacuum that Vance
and others mentioned form in a battery pod if you are using hydrocaps? If
the hydrocaps are having to rob the ambient air in the pod
for oxygen to create water because there is not enough oxygen from the
original seperation of the water
into hydrogen and oxygen for them to totally recombine again, then
where did that originally seperated oxygen go and whereever it went, what
is it doing?
I believe someone mentioned it somehow
formed an oxide? But they only briefly mentioned it and did not elaborate.
Is this correct? If it is, then what happens to make the oxygen bond and
get trapped making an oxide so that it can't recombine with the hydrogen? Does
ALL of the oxygen that was seperated go into making an oxide, or is
any of it left to recombine with the hydrogen? I have to know this before I can
understand why the vacuum forms.
Thanks Stan.
Kindest Regards,
Bill Akins.
