Anyone, Many people, including me, do not fully understand the relationship between how much power is released when burn a fuel and how much power is consumed in separating a fuel from another component, or element. Example: Water is Hydrogen and Oxygen. When power is applied to separate Hydrogen and Oxygen there then is burnable fuel, plus oxygen, where once there was water, and water cannot be burned. 1 Gallon of water Consume power to separate the elements hydrogen and oxygen Get a quantity of power to burn. The amount of power required to separate the water into hydrogen and oxygen will be a quantity of power, and not necessarily a fixed quantity of power, because different methods require different quantities of power to separate a given quantity of water into hydrogen and oxygen. Some people make the baseless claim that the power used in separating water into hydrogen and oxygen will be greater than the power that is contained within the hydrogen and oxygen quantity. If that were true, which it is not necessarily true, then why wouldn't the opposite be true? How much power does it take to combine hydrogen and oxygen into water, and once the power consumed in the process of combining hydrogen and oxygen into water is known, is it necessarily true that the reverse of the process results in a greater power contained in water? Process A: Power consumed in separating water into hydrogen and oxygen yields less power in the elements hydrogen and oxygen once they are no longer combined as water. Reverse process: Power consumed in combining hydrogen and oxygen into water yields more power in the combined elements of hydrogen and oxygen once they become water.
