Question

What is downward displacement of water ?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hydrogen is collected by downward displacement of water as it is less denser than water. Hence it comes out at the surface of water . It is insoluble in water so it does not dissolve in water. In case of displacement with air, it is not possible even if hydrogen is lighter than air (14.5 times lighter than air).

Answer 2

Explanation:

Hydrogen is collected by downward displacement of water as it is less denser than water. Hence it comes out at the surface of water . It is insoluble in water so it does not dissolve in water. ... This method is dengerous as the air and hydrogen mixture is explosive
