Can the electrical frequency separating the water molecule as in electrolysis be copied?

Can a special electrical frequency be used to split water molecules in electrolysis, and can that frequency be duplicated or monitored?

No—electrolysis does not use a unique DC frequency, because DC is a steady voltage and frequency applies to AC, not DC [#21683716] Water is split in electrolysis by ion attraction to the electrodes, and the practical measure of any setup is how much hydrogen and oxygen you get per unit of input power [#21683719] Some reports mention improved electrolysis when ordinary DC is combined with AC or pulsed DC, but that is not the same as a special frequency that uniquely separates water [#21683716][#21683719] Pure water is difficult to electrolyze because it is only slightly conductive, so other chemicals are often added [#21683719] One reply also notes that microwave frequencies can excite water molecules, but a DC bias would still be needed to collect any ions before recombination, and the voltages/frequencies involved may be hazardous [#21683722]

Topic summary

LABEL_AI_GENERATED
The discussion explores whether a specific electrical frequency, akin to those used in electrolysis, can be replicated to separate water molecules. It clarifies that electrolysis typically involves DC voltage causing ion attraction to electrodes, with no inherent frequency in DC; only AC signals have frequency. Some studies suggest pulsed DC or combined AC/DC can improve electrolysis efficiency. The concept of a "unique DC frequency" is scientifically inaccurate since DC is steady voltage without frequency. The separation of water molecules is a chemical process driven by energy input, not by a resonant frequency. Microwave frequencies can excite water molecules but do not cause electrolysis; a DC bias is required to collect ions. The law of conservation of energy applies, meaning energy input equals or exceeds output, negating the possibility of limitless energy from this process. Attempts to use non-integer or transcendental frequencies for splitting water molecules are speculative and lack empirical support. Safety concerns arise with high voltages and frequencies needed for such processes.
