Yes, hydrogen is incredibly combustible. It is gaseous and thus because of the mobility of the molecules the reactivity is increased. in addition it forms an extremely stable product so it is energetically favorable for it to ignite and burn.
2H2 + O2 -----> 2H2O + energy.
I would call it explosive rather than combustible but YES - very

Is americium combustible?
Americium is not combustible.
Can hydrogen gas relight a flame?
No. Oxygen gas relights flames. Hydrogen gas will explode in the presence of fire, giving a 'squeaky pop'
What are the physical and chemical properties of hydrogen?
hydrogen is a very low density gas, it's colorless, odorless, tasteless. the mass of pure hydrogen (H2, it's diatomic) is 2 grams per mole. Hydrogen is explosive , hydrogen flam is invisible.
Is hydrogen combustible in car engines?
Yes, hydrogen is transferred into the power to move the car either by fuel cell (resulting in electricity) or a traditional ICE (Internal Combustion Engine). Either way, the end product is water vapor.
Are wet leaves combustible in paper bag?
Yes if the leaves where damp but if they were wetter that that the would not be combustible. Combustible means something that can burn easy so dry leaves are combustible because they burn easily.
How is hydrogen hazardous?
Hydrogen is highly combustible.
What gases are combustible?
Methane Propane Hydrogen Hydrogen sulphide
What are The combustible products of most coal gasification techniques?
Hydrogen and Carbon Monoxide are the combustible products.
Is hydrogen a combustion reaction?
Hydrogen is an element, not a reaction. However, it is very combustible.
Who founder of hydrogen?
The hydrogen gas was discovered by Cavendish. he proposed the name Combustible gas which is now known as Hydrogen.
Why does hydrogen burn with a popping sound?
Hydrogen burns with a popping sound because it is combustible but not a supporter of combustion
How is water different from the elements which made them?
Hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are gases at room temperature. Oxygen supports combustion and hydrogen is very combustible. Water is a liquid at room temperature and is not combustible and does not support combustion.
Is there a chemical that turns to water or a non combustible liquid as it touches air?
Hydrogen
Is chlorine a corrosive combustible or flammable?
Corrosive, but it also 'burns' with hydrogen gas
If Hydrogen is combustible substance and oxygen is also combustible substance but the product water is non combustible substance Why?
When hydrogen burns, it is combining with oxygen. Once it has combined to form water, the molecule does not want to readily accept more oxygen atoms. Fire is rapid oxidation, so if it is already oxidized, it is done.
Is hydrogen noncombustible and non supporter of combustion?
Hydrogen is a highly combustible gas where it gives a unique 'pop' sound while burning.
What is the colour of hydrogen at room temp?
At normal room temeratures and pressures, hydrogen is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, nonmetallic, highly combustible gas.
