Chemicals aren't used to make O2 on board modern submarines; they use electrolysis to separate the Hydrogen and Oxygen in DI water, then store the O2 in tanks outside the pressure hull. The hydrogen is bled overboard as tiny bubbles (in the wine.... make me feel happy...make me feel fine).

What is used for oxygen in submarines?
There is a normal CO2 scrubber system that filters CO2 back into oxygen much the same as the space shuttle. In case of emergency oxygen Sodium Chlorate candles are used which give off an enormous amount of oxygen when its activated.
What chemical is produced when fuel is burned?
when an excess of oxygen is used CO2 and water (in the form of steam) is produced but if a quantity too small for the reaction is used CO is produced and again water (in the form of steam!) i hope this helps :)
Why is oxygen used up when a fire burns?
a) oxygen does not burn b) oxygen combines with the fuel - it is NOT a catalyst. c) a fire does acellerate when oxygen is added.
What element is used in chemical reactions that gives your body energy?
The answer is oxygen
When animal cell uses the chemical energy stored in sugar molecules which organelle or organelles must the oxygen reach?
The oxygen must reach the mitochondria in the animal cell. The mitochondria is responsible for aerobic respiration, which uses oxygen to break down sugar molecules and produce chemical energy in the form of ATP. Without oxygen, the mitochondria cannot generate energy efficiently.
Which chemical bond is used to join two oxygen atoms together to form an oxygen molecule?
A double bond.
What is the name of an early form of sonar used for locating submarines?
The answer is ASDIC
Why is there a demand for chemical oxygen?
There is a very large demand for chemical oxygen. Chemical oxygen is very sought after because it can be used to determine when water is contaminated with pollutants.
What can be used to describe a chemical change?
A chemical equation can be used to describe a chemical change. For instance when iron combines with oxygen to form iron (III) oxide (rust), a chemical change has occurred. It can be written as a chemical formula: 4 Fe + 3 O2 --> 2 Fe2O3

What is the use of the chemical oxygen?
oxygen is used in respiration which is carried out in all cells .
What are two uses of oxygen?
two uses for oxygen can be either the obvious to breathe or you can say oxygen can be used to make the production of steel, plastics, textiles, rocket repelant it can also be used for oxygen therapy and life support in aircraft, submarines, spaceflight and diving.......... hope that helps two uses for oxygen can be either the obvious to breathe or you can say oxygen can be used to make the production of steel, plastics, textiles, rocket repelant it can also be used for oxygen therapy and life support in aircraft, submarines, spaceflight and diving.......... hope that helps
What chemical enters the leaf used in photosynthesis?
oxygen
When the oxygen is carried to cells it is used to relese what?
cells use the oxygen to release chemical energy.

What is the compound used to purify air in both a submarine and a spaceship?
Lithium Hydroxide is the only chemical used to remove Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the atmospheres of both submarines and spacecraft. For submarines, however, it is only used in emergencies or to augment a failing CO2 scrubber (or replace one that has failed).
