What property of this gas contributed to the Hindenburg Disaster?
"This gas" is hydrogen, correct? The property that contributed to the Hindenburg Disaster is flammability.
What accident led to change hydrogen gas in airships?
The Hindenburg disaster
What lighter than air gas was once used to power airships in cause the Hindenburg disaster?
The gas was Hydrogen.
What gas should the hindenburg have used?
The Hindenburg should have used helium gas instead of hydrogen gas. Helium is non-flammable, unlike hydrogen, which was a major factor contributing to the Hindenburg disaster.
What are the gases used to fly balloons?
Two of the gases that are used to fly balloons are Hydrogen and Helium. Helium is the preferred gas because Hydrogen is very explosive. The Hindenburg disaster was caused by the ignition of the Hydrogen gas that filled it.
Was the Hindenburg filled with helium?
No, the Hindenburg airship was filled with hydrogen gas, not helium. The use of hydrogen was a factor in the Hindenburg disaster, as the highly flammable gas led to the airship catching fire and crashing in 1937.
Were any other zeppelins filled with hydrogen?
Yes, other zeppelins were filled with hydrogen. The Hindenburg disaster in 1937, where the German airship caught fire and crashed, highlighted the dangers of using hydrogen. After the disaster, most airships transitioned to using helium, a non-flammable gas, instead of hydrogen.
How did hydrogen make the Hindenburg rise?
The Hindenburg was a giant balloon airship filled with hydrogen gas for buoyancy.Hydrogen is the lightest of all gasses and has a mass of only half the mass of helium gas, so it worked well to lift the mass of the airship. The Hindenburg disaster took place on Thursday, May 6, 1937, and part of the disaster was due to the hydrogen gas catching fire. Helium would not catch fire since it is an inert gas.
What happened when the splint was brought to the mouth of the first bottle of hydrogen collected?
When the splint was brought to the mouth of the first bottle of hydrogen collected, the hydrogen gas ignited with a pop sound, indicating that hydrogen is a highly flammable gas. This reaction is due to the combination of hydrogen gas with oxygen in the air, creating water vapor.
