Hydrogen or sometimes called water, is a chemical element on the periodic table that has the symbol H and atomic number 1. At standard temperatures and pressures, hydrogen is colorless, odorless, non-metallic, singlevalent, and a highly flammable diatomic gas. With an atomic mass of 1.00794 amu, hydrogen is the lightest element in the world. It is also the most abundant element, accounting for roughly 75% of the total elemental mass of the universe. Most stars are formed by hydrogen in the plasma state. Hydrogen compounds are relatively rare and rarely found naturally on Earth, and are usually produced industrially from various hydrocarbons such as methane. Hydrogen can also be produced from water through electrolysis, but this process is more expensive commercially than producing hydrogen from natural gas. With the aim to prove the explosion that occurred and the reaction that occurred during the experimental process of an exothermic or endoderm reaction explosion

This study aims to find out whether or not there is a content of vitamin C in tomatoes, cucumbers, chayote, spinach, lime and bilimbi by reacting with betadine containing povidone iodine 10% w/v, which is equivalent to 1% iodine. If iodine reacts with vitamin C, then the color of iodine will disappear. Each extract of fruits and vegetables is added to a glass containing aqua that has been added 25 drops of betadine with a solution color that is reddish brown. Obtained discoloration from each addition of fruit and vegetable extract: a) Cucumbers change color to solid bright yellow, b) Tomatoes change color to clear bright yellow, c) Chayote change color to white, d) Spinach changes color to dark green, e) Lime changes color to brownish orange and f) Bilimbi changes color to orange. The discoloration that occurs indicates that tomatoes, cucumbers, chayote, spinach, lime and bilimbi contain vitamin C.

Many researchers have used activated carbon as adsorbents for the adsorption heavy metal. The aim of present study was to investigate the adsorption properties of activated carbon for the removal of Fe metal. A research has been conducted to determine optimal of stirring time, stirring speed, adsorbent mass and particle size on activated carbon adsorbent in adsorption Fe metal. From the literature survey that increase in stirring time, stirring speed and adsorbent mass enhancing the removal of Fe metal. The results show which is on stirring time 60 minutes, stirring speed 90 radians per minute and adsorbent mass 2 grams have a high adsorption of the heavy metals of iron. Whereas the smaller of particle size enhancing the adsorption of Fe metal. The particle size of 200 mesh is the optimal particle size for adsorption of Fe. Finally, activated carbon showed to be a good potential adsorbent for removing Fe.

Basically, the voltage can be obtained from various sources, including fruit. Fruit is often used as food, drink and a source of vitamins for the body's defense system. It turns out that it has the ability to generate electricity, especially for fruit that has a high acidity level. The acidity in some types of fruit is able to generate electricity because it is electrolyte. Fruits which contain mineral acids in the form of hydrochloric acid and citric acid, are strong electrolytes that break down completely into ions in a water solution. Besides having acid, fruits also contain a lot of water, so that when two different metals are immersed, the fruit solution will create a potential difference between the metal and water so that there is an electrode potential that can generate electric current as well. The purpose of making a rough draft of this practicum is to prove the existence of electrical energy in pineapples and potatoes. In this experiment, it has been proven that pineapples and potatoes can produce an electric current, indicated by the presence of a voltage when measured by a voltmeter.

This study aims to determine the source of electrical energy in potatoes and lime. The method used is based on the principle that the salt content in potatoes is a solution, where salt is the solute and water is the solvent, so the ions can move freely. The movement of the ions in the potato can conduct electricity. For the contained acid lime affects the hardness of the composite, which affects the matrix and filler bonds. oxalic acid, which is in lime juice, is a type of electrolyte solution. In a voltaic cell, the electrolyte solution can function to deliver ions from the anode to the cathode so that it can produce electrical energy. Electrical energy is energy that is very important in life. Electrical energy is a basic human need so that potatoes and lime can be used as an alternative source of electrical energy.
