An article that appeared in the Reno Gazette Journal on May 18, 1992, quotes an inventor as saying that he has turned water into motor vehicle fuel in a breakthrough that would increase engine efficiency, save gasoline, and reduce smog. There is also a picture of a car that the inventor has modified to run on half water and half gasoline. The inventor claims that sparks from catalytic poles in the converted engine break down the water into oxygen and hydrogen, which is burned with the gasoline. He adds that hydrogen has a higher energy density than carbon and the high-energy density enables one to get more power. The inventor states that the fuel efficiency of his car increased from 20 mpg (miles per gallon) to more than 50 mpg of gasoline as a result of conversion and notes that the conversion has sharply reduced emissions of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and other exhaust pollutants. Evaluate the claims made by the inventor, and write a report that is to be submitted to a group of investors who are considering financing this invention.
