The main ingredient in liquid plumber is Sodium Hydroxide. When Sodium Hydroxide is combined with Aluminum, it prevents a protective barrier from forming around the Aluminum, and the water in the Liquid Plumber dissolves the Aluminum. This reaction actually forms Oxyhydrogen, which is not as reactive or volatile as pure hydrogen. So you are not getting pure hydrogen gas.
