Solid carbon

Question 10

How is pink hydrogen produced?

Answer 10

Nuclear energy, electrolysis

Question 11

What are the properties of hydrogen gas?

Answer 11

1. Odorless, non-toxic, tasteless, non-Corrosive.
2. Small molecular weight and size.
3. highle diffusive.
4. low viscosity.
5. present in high buoyancy.

Question 12

What are the properties of hydrogen liquid?

Answer 12

1. H2 is liquified at -253C at atm pressure.
2. Cryogenic liquid (causes freeze burns).
3. containers must be insulated, vaccum jacketed, and double walled.

Question 13

what does combusting hydrogen produce?

Answer 13

heat and water

Question 14

Does combusting hydrogen has carbon? Explain.

Answer 14

No Due to the absence of carbon, fires that are caused by hydrogen require less power to disperse the heat compared to hydrocarbons.

Question 15

describe the flammability of hydrogen.

Answer 15

Hydrogen has high flammability range and can combust easily since it requires small amount of energy to start combustion.

Question 16

Is hydrogen explosions more common than hydrocarbon explosions? why?

Answer 16

hydrocarbon explosions are more common since hydrogen is light weight so it tends to disperse in the atmosphere in case of explosion while hydrocarbons tend to concentrate near the ground which causes explosions.
