That depends...
When I was a kid I did some "chemistry experiments", and one of those was
electrolysis. Used a couple of carbon rods pulled out of old D cell
batteries for electrodes.
I wasn't real sure that things were working when I tried this setup with some
batteries, I think I had maybe 3 volts across it or something, though after
a while I did see a microscopic bubble or two.
So I got myself a line cord, and a "selenium rectifier" that I had salvaged
out of some old TV or something, and hooked _that_ up!
You should have seen how quickly it got a whole test tube full of gas!
I had to keep adding water, and of course the concentration of the "stuff"
that was in the tap water I was using kept getting higher and higher as the
water itself was used up. Turned *BLACK* after a while...
I still don't tend to drink all that much tap water even to this day...
