Prelude....
Scotland yard was baffled
and had not found out where the missing original oxygen had gone to in
the totally sealed room.
Sherlock Bill was playing
his minnkota violin and smoking his pipe while deeply in thought with
his knitted brow showing the strain of days of pondering this one
question.
For days now this one
question had nagged at him as Dr. Stan Watson
had tried to help Sherlock
Bill figure out where the orignal room oxygen had gone. Thus far they
were not sure what had
happened to the oxygen in
the room that Lady Rutherford had died in. The doors were sealed both
air and water tight.
No one had entered the room
and taken the original oxygen from the room. Dr Stan Watson thought
that perhaps the
oxygen had been bonded to
and absorbed by something in the room but that was just a guess and as
yet he wasn't sure of that.
Odd bodkins! Where did
the ORIGINAL oxygen get to? Could it possibly be that fiendish Dr.
Moriarty had stolen the original oxygen somehow?
Zounds! The game's afoot!
THE CASE OF: THE MISSING
ORIGINAL OXYGEN SEPERATED FROM THE HYDROGEN IN THE BATTERY POD.
Hi Vance.
Yes, I understand and grasp
exactly what you said in your below posting.
I understand that if the
original oxygen that seperated from the hydrogen is missing, then the
ambient oxygen in your pod will take up the slack and combine with the
hydrogen and form water and this
will reduce the ambient
oxygen in your pod and therefore produce a vacuum.
I totally understand that.
But what I do not understand
is WHERE DID THE ORIGINAL OXYGEN
THAT ORIGINALLY SEPERATED
FROM THE HYDROGEN GO TO? WHY DOES THE AMBIENT OXYGEN IN THE POD HAVE TO
REPLACE THE ORIGINAL
OXYGEN THAT SEPERATED FROM
THE HYDROGEN IN THE FIRST PLACE UNLESS THAT ORIGINAL OXYGEN IS MISSING?
The 64 dollar question here
for me is.....WHERE DID THE OXYGEN THAT ORIGINALLY SEPERATED FROM THE
HYDROGEN GO, SO THAT OTHER AMBIENT
OXYGEN IN THE POD NOW HAS TO
TAKE THE PLACE OF THAT ORIGINAL OXYGEN SO THAT WATER CAN BE REFORMED BY
THE HYDROCAPS?
BECAUSE IF THE ORIGINAL
SEPERATED OXYGEN WAS NOT MISSING AND WAS PRESENT AND REFORMED WITH THE
ORIGINAL HYDROGEN THAT IT ORIGINALLY
SEPERATED FROM, THEN THERE
WOULDN'T BE A LOSS OF VOLUME, SO THIS ORIGNAL SEPERATED OXYGEN MUST BE
MISSING RIGHT?
Stan says he thinks the
ORIGINAL oxygen that seperated from the hydrogen might be missing
because it bonded with something and became an oxide or something.
Is this what has happened to
the original oxygen that seperated from the hydrogen? If not, where did
it go?
Stan has his suspicions that
the originally seperated oxygen MIGHT have bonded with something to
become an oxide or something, but thus far no one has definatively and specifically answered this yet.
Kindest Regards,
Bill Akins.
