Did they test for ions or simply silver in any form Roger? Also,
should they be testing for nitrite or nitrate? My good book says
nitrates are mostly from organic decomposition and nitrites
and mostly from ammonia oxidation with water - seems that
lightening will produce ammonia (a chemist I am not!).

The first sample I got (from another list member) failed the
metallic silver test badly - over (50) O2 bubbles/sq. in. in a few
hours, on a 1/2oz. sample. My interpretation is that there are
very many tiny metallic particles of silver present! (My H2O2
test in a plastic baggy!) As mentioned before, silver ions will
produce NO bubbles at all, even in two days!

He used the "arc" type of process. Have more tests to do on it,
so will report later. Your sample did not arrive yet!

Can you run an "nitrogen free" test  (enclose the reaction chamber
in a plastic bag filled with O2 or CO2 or at least use a vacuum cleaner
to evacuate most air from the system/bag), to see if you still get the
dip in pH? That will show if the arc was producing nitric acid of if
your theory of structuring has merit!  I do not believe it is happening to
the extent you say, since submerged electrodes (AC current - no arc)
apparently will not drop the pH, or am I mis-informed on that?

List;

Recently I made a 5 gallon batch of HVAC CS which analyzed (Kimball Labs,
Draper Utah), after dilution, to 12.7 PPM. pH was 4.4 - 4.6 and nitrate was
below the detectable limit of 0.3 PPM.

So the evidence continues to support the notion that the water itself is
being restructured either indirectly from the high voltage used to produce CS
(whereby electrostatically charged silver particles accentuate the polarity
of nearby water molecules which increases the activity of hydronium ions.
Thus a lower pH is observed WITHOUT generating higher concentrations of
hydrogen ions), and/or directly from the electromagnetic field induced by the
high frequency ac current used in the process. If fact, the silver list
carried a report recently of experiments which verify that ac current can
produce or accentuate the properties of structured water.
