"This gas" is hydrogen, correct? The property that contributed to the Hindenburg Disaster is flammability.
The Hindenburg disaster
Hydrogen is higly explosive ! Remember the Hindenburg disaster.
The gas was Hydrogen.
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.
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.
hydrogen and hydrogen gas are same hydrogen is gas
Hydrogen was one of the earliest gases to be used for inflatable flying balloons, but following the Hindenberg disaster helium is now used, as it is chemically inert.
Hydrogen
Exothermic reaction, then explosion from hydrogen Gas production.
In their early history, buoyant airships (zepellins, blimps) were filled with hydrogen, a highly flammable gas. Since the Hindenburg disaster, hydrogen has been supplanted by helium, a much more expensive material, but one that is inert and hence much safer.
