What is the name of a artificial atomic element discovered after the first hydrogen bomb explosion in 1953?
Plutonium
What is more stronger a comet explosion or a nuke explosion?
a comet explosion is more stronger and bigger than a nuke explosion and atomic bomb but not a hydrogen if you want something to be mor bigger than a hydrogen explosion call in a asteroid that's bigger than a hydrogen explosion and some meteors. ps I am the maker of the awnsers web site
What are the advantages and disadvantages of hydrogen as an alternative fuel?
Hydrogen is plentiful therefore cheep. It is also volatile if not handled properly. Comparatively, a hydrogen explosion can be close to a nuclear explosion damage wise.
In the test tube which gas 'pops' when a burning splint is inserted?
Hydrogen explodes when you try to burn it. However, we usually only experiment with a small amount of hydrogen so the explosion is not very big. That "pop" that you hear when the burning splint is inserted in the hydrogen is actually a mini explosion. This mini explosion puts out the flame.
Is hydrogen gas explosion endothermic or exothermic and why?
Exothermic
What can cause changes in an ecosystem?
The explosion of a hydrogen bomb.
Why does an explosion occur when hydrogen is added to fire?
Hydrogen itself is highly flammable. If it comes in contact with an open flame it will ignite and burn very rapidly, resulting in an explosion.
How does hydrogen gas cause explosion on nuclear reactors?
A spark or other heat source causes the accumulated hydrogen to react with oxygen in the air, making very hot steam. If there is enough hydrogen an explosion results.
Is hydrogen deadly?
Hydrogen is not toxic, but in its elemental form it is highly flammable. Mishandling it can result in an explosion.
What is the biggest know explosion in history?
The biggest explosion in history was the detonation of the Hydrogen bomb in the Bikini Atoll in the 1950s.
What happens when fire mixes with hydrogen?
If there is enough oxygen, the hydrogen will ignite and burn rapidly, possible leading to an explosion.
What are they doing to fix the nuclear explosion in japan?
There was no nuclear explosion in the Japanese reactors. The explosion(s) that damaged/destroyed the Japanese reactors were either steam explosions and/or hydrogen/oxygen gas explosions.A steam explosion is what destroyed the Chernobyl reactor. It is caused when cooling water flash evaporates.A hydrogen/oxygen explosion is caused when water decomposes on contact with overheated zirconium cladding on fuel pellets, releasing hydrogen gas. If enough accumulates and a spark happens it explodes. Three Mile Island began accumulating hydrogen like this but it was vented before it could explode.
