Is a volcanic explosion a chemical reaction?
Explosions may or may not represent a chemical change. A stick of TNT going off is a chemical explosion. A compressed gas cylinder with a failing weld that blows up while being filled is a mechanical explosion. In the case of a volcano, the cause of the explosion is mechanical. We take a page from physics to answer this question. It is a buildup of pressure caused by heating of the magma (which may include gases and water) that causes the violent release of energy that we observe.
When did Esso Longford gas explosion happen?
Esso Longford gas explosion happened on 1998-09-25.
What is proof of a chemical change?
A release of gas; a color change; release or absorption of energy and burning. Chemical changes are not easily reversed and sometimes may not be possible at all.
What happens when you pour Drano down a drain after Bleach?
When Drano and aluminum are placed together in a bottle it creates an explosion. The explosion varies when immersed in water. Whereas, it only melts.
Is hydrogen gas explosion endothermic or exothermic and why?
Exothermic
Hydrogen gas has made its way into many history books. What particular event invovled this particular gas?
The event was the explosion of the Hindenberg dirigible in the 1930s.
What make chemicals explode?
The cause of an explosion is a violent chemical reaction with release of gas.
Is exploding a chemical change?
An explosion is the sudden release of a volume of compressed gas. The chemicals remain the same, so it is only a physical change.Note that the reaction resulting in an explosion may be a chemical change, but the resulting pressure changes are not.

Is explosions chemical or physical?
Both, sorta. The explosion itself is expanding hot gas, which is a purely physical reaction. However, most of the time, that's triggered by a chemical reaction to create the heat.
When did Cleveland East Ohio Gas explosion happen?
Cleveland East Ohio Gas explosion happened in 1944.
When did Esso Longford gas explosion happen?
Esso Longford gas explosion happened on 1998-09-25.
What day was the wickwar gas explosion on?
The Wickwar gas explosion itself was was in the early hours of Friday 9th January
Did the explosion of the Hindenburg lead to the creation of the hydrogen bomb?
no!!!!!the Hindenburg did not explode. its aluminum painted skin caught fire from an electrostatic discharge. that fire ignited ordinary chemical hydrogen/oxygen fires as the lift gas bladders breached.no nuclear fusion was involved. not even a chemical explosion occurred.

Is adding sodium to water a chemical change?
Yea it is a chemical change. The Sodium reacts with water in a chemical reaction in which the sodium displaces the hydrogen in the water, creating sodium oxide and hydrogen gas. The heat from the reaction ignites the hydrogen, which creates the explosion.
