Abstract :
An experiment for getting hydrogen is fabricated. The main emphasis of the investigation is based on hydrogen gas because on igniting it in the presence of oxygen for obtaining fire, its molecular bond is broken. By gaining excess amount of kinetic energy, both the electrons leave from the molecular structure. So the covalent bond is dissociated. It becomes now impossible for the electrons to return even in the atomic level. Because the hydrogen atom is a mono electronic atom and the centre of the atom has been shifted due to the force of repulsion applying in between the relative protons. Due to change of positions of protons, the electrons can not come back to respective original state but wonder for finding the positions for revolution permanently else where. Thus the atomic state of both the hydrogen atoms is also lost. The free charge of protons now exert forces on hydrogen and oxygen molecular gases for breaking the respective covalent bonds in bulk. However the molecular bond of oxygen is also destroyed but the atomic state still remains existing. Because the sharing electrons are returned back to original positions in atomic co orbitals. A whirlwind of energetic electrons separated from the hydrogen and relaxing on co orbitals of oxygen atoms is created. It can be manipulated that these electrons are responsible for emitting flame of fire as radiation of thermal energy. The oxygen atoms play the important role to relax electrons by giving place respectively in the partially vacant co orbitals of 2p sub orbit for taking possession. The excess of kinetic energy of electrons required more than orbiting in the captured co orbitals is transformed as radiation emitted. In this procedure, both the electrons of hydrogen molecule are donated to atomic oxygen for increasing the electronic configuration from 2p4 to 2p6. After accepting electrons, the oxygen atom becomes negatively charged ion by two units. One unit of negative charge is neutralized by one proton of hydrogen nuclei to make OH assembly, and the other unit of negative charge makes the assembly as negatively charged (OH)- radical. The other proton of hydrogen nuclei (H)+ is also used in making electrovalent bonding between charge constituents by (H)+ ?? (OH)- interaction resulting H2O molecule in addition during the process of burning of hydrogen gas for liberating energy.
