Can hydrogen and air mix?

Yes, hydrogen and air can mix. However, hydrogen is highly flammable and when mixed with air in certain concentrations, it can form an explosive mixture. This is why caution is needed when handling and storing hydrogen in the presence of air.


What happens if you mix hydogen with air?

Hydrogen is already a element in the air. So in other words, nothing will happen. +++ That is Not Correct on both counts. Think about it: hydrogen is extremely flammable. Hydrogen is an element, yes, but not a component of the atmosphere, except perhaps in vanishingly tiny quantities. Besides, the question posits a deliberate mixing. Hydrogen burns in air, i.e. combines exothermically with oxygen that IS in the atmosphere, producing water.


What should you not mix hydrogen peroxide with?

Do not mix hydrogen peroxide with bleach or vinegar, as it can create harmful chemical reactions.


What is the effect if you mix nitrogen and air in tires?

Mixing nitrogen and regular air in tires will dilute the benefits of having pure nitrogen-filled tires, such as more stable tire pressure and reduced oxidation of the tire components. It may still provide some benefits over using regular air alone, but the advantages won't be as pronounced.


Is a tire losing air a chemical reaction?

No, a tire losing air is a physical phenomenon caused by air molecules escaping through tiny holes or leaks in the tire. This is not a chemical reaction because it does not involve a change in the chemical composition of the tire or the air.

Why can't you mix hydrogen and air?

Mixing hydrogen and air can be dangerous because hydrogen is a highly flammable gas, and when mixed with oxygen in the air, it can lead to explosions or fires. The combination of hydrogen and air creates a highly explosive mixture that can ignite easily in the presence of a spark or heat source. Special precautions and safety measures must be taken when handling or storing hydrogen to prevent accidents.


Can oxygen and hydrogen be mixed after separating them from air?

No one obtains hydrogen by separating it from air. There's not enough hydrogen present in air for that to be a viable source. However, it's possible to mix oxygen and hydrogen, yes. It forms a flammable (and explosive, if you get the proportions just right) mixture of gases.


Can you mix tire sealants together?

No, it is not recommended to mix tire sealants together as it can affect their effectiveness and potentially cause damage to the tire.


Do astronauts breath hydrogen in space or oxygen or both?

They breathe air, which contains oxygen. They do not breathe hydrogen, as it is a bad idea to mix hydrogen and oxygen unless you intend to create anexplosion.


Can you mix 185 70 14 and 185 75 14 tire sizes?

No, never mix tire sizes.

Can you refill a flat tire with air?

Yes, you can refill a flat tire with air using a tire inflator or an air compressor.


What happens when hydrogen and helium mix?

Helium is completely inert, it is the most inert of all elements, and so it will not react in any way with hydrogen (or with any other element). So, if you mix hydrogen and helium, nothing happens. You have a mixture of hydrogen and helium. It's a lot lighter than air, you can make balloons that will float. Of course, you can do that with pure hydrogen or with pure helium, as well.


Does a car tire weigh more with air or the same when its flat and tire is on a rim?

The chemical signature for air is H20, or 2 parts Hydrogen and 1 part Oxygen. As each of these elements has mass, even in a gaseous state, the short answer is that air weighs 0.070 lbs oer cubic foot. So at one atmosphere of 14.7 PSI (that is the pressure of the air around us) when the tire is flat, if you knew the volume of the tire, you could compute the weight of the air in the tire. Now, if the tire were inflated to 26 PSI, it would be at 1.77 atmosphere, so the weight of the air in the tire when inflated would more than when it is flat. No, H2O is the chemical signature for WATER. Otherwise the answer would be correct.


Suppose you deflate a bicycle tire by depressing the air valve Why does air rush out of the tire and After the air stops rushing out of the tire is the tire empty?

Air rushes out because it is under pressure. Once there is no longer any pressure in the tire the air will stop flowing out. However there is still air in the tire it is just equal to the pressure outside.
