Howmany of hydrogen is in the atmosphere?

There is not much hydrogen in the air at all. The air mostly consists of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon.


Why does hydrogen pop louder when lit if it is first mixed with air?

The pop you hears is a result of the hydrogen reaction with oxygen. When it is mixed with air, all of the hydrogen is readily in contact with oxygen, and the reaction can proceed much more rapidly.


How much hydrogen is in the air?

Hydrogen makes up about 0.00005% of the Earth's atmosphere, so there is a very small amount of hydrogen present in the air. The majority of the atmosphere is composed of nitrogen (about 78%) and oxygen (about 21%).


Does pure hydrogen burn in the absence of air?

No hydrogen will not burn in the absence of air unless another oxidizer is present.


How much oxygen can be present before hydrogen ignites?

Hydrogen can ignite when the concentration of oxygen in the air is between 4% and 75%. Below 4%, there is not enough oxygen for ignition, and above 75%, the mixture becomes too rich to ignite.


How are coffee and air alike?

Coffee and air are mixed, but the coffee is heterogeneous, and the air is uniform and both have many substances in their chemical composition, the two have water, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen, but in different molecular ways.


Is hydrogen more abundant than oxygen in air?

No


What body compound would have much of the hydrogen and oxygen?

Water (H2O) would have much of the hydrogen and oxygen in the body.


Do astronauts breath hydrogen in space or oxygen or both?

They breathe air, which contains oxygen. They do not breathe hydrogen, as it is a bad idea to mix hydrogen and oxygen unless you intend to create anexplosion.


Can oxygen and hydrogen be mixed after separating them from air?

No one obtains hydrogen by separating it from air. There's not enough hydrogen present in air for that to be a viable source. However, it's possible to mix oxygen and hydrogen, yes. It forms a flammable (and explosive, if you get the proportions just right) mixture of gases.


How much hydrogen and oxygen hydrogen are in carbon?

None. Hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon are all elements. Elements do not contain other elements.


When hydrogen burns in air it reacts with another element?
