---|
I am fifteen years old, the eldest of five children, and am currently home schooled. In my spare time, I enjoy playing the piano, cycling, chess, and swimming. I was the gold medalist in Intermediate Physical and Mathematical Sciences at the Canada-Wide Science Fair, in Ottawa, 2008. I have always been keenly interested in science, especially the field of chemistry. My career plans involve research related to renewable energy and hydrogen. |

The sodium hydroxide required for the reaction could be obtained by solar-powered electrolysis of sea water. The electrolysis would also produce hydrogen, which could provide electrical or thermal power, and chlorine, which could be used for industrial processes. |
