A salt water solution and a baking soda water solution both have a current applied to them. The salt water turned yellow during the short period of time the current was applied. The baking soda water turned a light blue. Any comments on the color change?

    hahaha, hands dry. You do realize that you don't need to have wet hands to get electrocuted right? I remember chatting with a guy that was using an arc underwater to produce hydrogen. He stopped because one day after his experiment got the HHO combo perfect and, well, BANG! He filled his lab with shattered glass. Most of the time its ok, but you must not forget how volatile these kinda experiments can be. Hope you at least wear goggles.
