Gas diffusion experiment. Hydrogen gas is produced from a chemical reaction at left. Since hydrogen is a small and light gas molecule,it passes through the clay pipe faster than air or other gases can. The arrangement of the apparatus means that a vacuum is generated,causing water to rise up the tube at lower left from the jar of water.
