If an anode is put in the salt water, with a cathode on the other end of a motor, there will electricity until the ions in the salt water go negative (pH < 7), or the cathode disintegrates.
Am I being played here? You're really entertaining an H2O, i.e., an on-the-fly hydrogen generator, powered vehicle?
Didn't you take thermal and/or p-chem?
This was a liquid battery back in the day. Electric cars in the early 1900s used jars set up like this. Different ionized anode solution from salt water but similar workings.
p.s. During that time there were more electric than gasoline-powered cars.

Yeah, and they also has a range of? The modern water powered car craze isn't about batteries....it's about decomposing H2O into H2 and O2 and combusting them...

Rothbard fanboi wants to take the history high ground? Rich.
Have ye so little faith in praxeology of your heroes?
Praxeology. Heh.
I'll just leave you to your subjective cesspool; where every idea is both truth and a concocted lie, all at the same time.
You remind me of quite a few bankruptcy court law clerks who can troll through Westlaw until they find the Truth as defined by some bankruptcy judge in the Frozen Tits District of Alaska or the Peyote District of New Mexico.

Bankruptcy law! That is another place where they state can be a useful economic lubricant. I forgot about that one, thanks buddy!
I'll leave you to your a priori claims on objectivity... I mean, unless you want to walk back a little on Mises and Rothbard and join us here in reality.
HAIL!
Her needs America so they won't just take his shit away like in some pussy non gun totting countries can happen.

Your "reality" is nothing more than a state-funded survey. Maybe the state can conjure up your next meal when you need it; I don't wish you ill, at least not just because you live on Gumdrop Mountain. Peace upon you.
Dude - this whole thing is bogus.....it takes more energy to decompose salted H2O into O2 and H2 than you can recapture back, even with the most efficient combustion engine.....If this were possible, some Bubba living northwest of Normand OK would have built a working one and done all sort of public proofs....Come on - I thought you were better than this...
I give this thread a 6.5 on the Katsung scale of 0-9.....
First learned about it on 60 minutes, years ago. It’s a real thing.
@GCF - it's a scam......the math proves it....the hydrogen generator is a net drag on the gasoline engine which is used to generate the electricity to separate the H2O into H2 and O2 in the first place. For this to work, you would have to recover more energy from burning H2 and O2 than it does to decompose H2O....
I'm digging my heels in on this one until another STEM corrects me.
Where's all the Hydrogen generator cars on the engineering campuses? Silicon Valley? The only people who fall for this are Bubbas....
