In December, I decided to do electrolysis to make hydrogen.
I attached two alligator clips to the terminals of a 9-volt battery, clipped the other ends to some pieces of carbon, and put them in a container of salty water. This splits the water molecules (H2O) into hydrogen and oxygen.  
The hydrogen comes off one carbon, and the oxygen comes off the other. I only collected the hydrogen.
