Question

Can you invent a car that uses water as a fuel?

Answer 1

pass the water through a turbine connected to an electric generator.

use the electric to charge a battery.

use the battery to drive the electric motor to propel the car

Answer 2

the steam engine is the one and it was invented many many years ago. Imagine water as fuel, we might run out of water.

Answer 3

Yes it has been done. #1 electrolisis is grade 9 science, the result,hydrogen and oxygen. #2 the hardware ie. tanks, regulators, mixers etc. these are out there many vehicle run on natural gas OEM and aftermarket. #3 is it practical? not really the reason the manufacturers don't hardly build propane and natural gas powered vehicles is the cost of repairing and the constant schooling their servicemen need to keep up with the new technologies.Lotsa other reasons but Im allready ranting, sorry

Answer 4

No, water cannot be used as a fuel.  Anyone who claims otherwise is either a fool or a charlatan.

Answer 5

Yes, but I am keeping it to myself so as to minimize the impact it would have on the destruction of earth's oceans.

(We only have a limited amount of water and I am trying to think about the future.)

Oh and Kitty, pulling hydrogen out of water is easy.

Just run an electric current through it.

It's called hydrolysis.

Answer 6

I already have two tractors that use water as fuel.  They sprinkle my yard with there exhaust and follow my hose around my house.

Answer 7

Yes, it has been done many times. Visit the site below to find out why this technology is not being actively encouraged by our governments.

Enjoy your research!

Answer 8

Yes, you can. Hydrogen is too dangerous and complicated to store onboard so you need another solution. Experiments have recently been done to break down hydrogen and oxygen from the water (using water as energy storage). These experiments seem to become more and more efficient; extracting hydrogen at an increasingly better rate without using too much energy. This idea began many decades ago, but since a rediscovery from Stan Meyer (who also died recently) people have recently been pursuing this science. This somehow taps into zero point energy (energy stored at the molecular level). If you can find a way to extract a sufficient rate of hydrogen from water onboard then you might be able to run your car solely on hydrogen. I believe it is already being done and I'll start working on it on my own to prove it to myself.

Btw I doubt our oceans would dry up from this as hydrogen is compressed in water. Therefore much less water is needed, besides there is much much more water on earth than oil. And by burning hydrogen, you get water back.

Answer 9

U cannot pour water into ur gas tank. water is not a source of fuel!

Answer 10

If you mean can you burn water, then no, water is already burnt. Hydrogen was burnt to form water.

There are ways to make fuel from water, but in every case you use more energy then you get back.

Sorry no free lunch.

Answer 11

yes you can by using breaking and using the hydrogen in the water. it's "HOW" to make it work..thats the REAL mystery =D

Answer 12

If you do, let me know.

Answer 13

No.

There is no such thing, if there is, it's a scam.

However, chemical batteries backed by solar power are out there, and they're very good.

Answer 14

Filipinos have done this for a lot of times now. I myself cannot. But the thing is to use the Hydrogen in H2O. They said to break the H in H2O you need 1000 degrees celsius. I don't know what the Filipino scientists did but my theory is that they used electricity.

I wonder why the government did not support them? Is it because they may dry up the ocean like the other dude said or maybe the oil compnaies don't like that to happen. (look at hydrogen car, it's been around for decades, yes decades, but it's still not mass produced)

Check out Ozzigold's (one of those who answered) source for you.

Answer 15

They did in the 1920's.  Too bad they never developed it further.  They problem is that it needs a heat source in order to create steam.

I cant believe that they cant do that in the 21stCentury?
