Chemists develop new way to split water
To do this, what level of distillation needs to be reached? When breaking the bonds in a water molecule, what happens to the impurities in the water?

"the opposite". You need mildly polluted water to make it easier to split molecules (pure water requires way more energy to split apart). In this paper, they specifically want the impurities to accept the hydrogen.

interesting. so can you split water to make hydrogen && desalinate would be the direction of questioning in my mind
