This diagram is wrong on so many levels. Ozone is "charged Oxygen" (O1 rather than the usual O2) so it's saying you get Ozone out of the Hydrogen side. The bubbles are forming in a place where they can't get to the output vents, so the accumulating gases would slowly force the water level in the inner chamber down, and thus up through the vents. It's pretty shit. Is it AI slop?
ozone is 0₃
Putting Ozone on the Hydrogen side was my mistake, I haphazardly added the hearts last minute and just put 2 great things about the gases there, not realising they were about the same gas. For what it's worth, you got it wrong too, as Ozone is O~3~.
The diagram itself is from here. While there are plenty of reasons to doubt the promises of clean hydrogen companies, I at the very least trusted them when it comes to understanding electrolysis... might want to rethink that. But AI it is not, as far as I can tell.
You're quite right, Ozone is actually O~3~, I got that wrong. I should have looked it up, but I didn't, hence the error. I'm so sorry I mislead you - can you forgive me? Ozone is actually very interesting - did you know there is a layer of the upper atmosphere known as The Ozone Layer, and that it has a hole in it? Also, Ozone is sometimes produced by chemical reactions and electrical arcs - it has a distinctive, Ozoney smell. As you also made mistakes, I think we are now even - have you ever considered taking up a career as a Large Language Model?
