Different sources give different numbers. A hydrogen flame in air burns at

  • "2045 °C"
  • "2,400 K" = 3860 °C
  • "2483 K" = 2127 °C

A hydrogen flame in a pure oxygen environment can burn hotter:

  • "2660 °C"
  • "3,080 K" = 2800 °C
  • "3473 K" = 3200 °C

Hydrogen energized by an electrical arc until it separates into lone atoms, and then burned (an "atomic hydrogen torch"), can produce even hotter flames, at 4000 °C to 5000 °C.

Why is oxygen needed to make something burn?

If you want to be really specific, you can have a flame using other things. For example, a jet of hydrogen will burn in an atmosphere of chlorine. You get hydrogen chloride then. But if you burn the hydrogen in oxygen you get water. These examples demonstrate that burning is a chemical reaction and a great many things will combine with oxygen and in many cases small particles of white/red hot material are given off. This is a flame.


Can you get hydrogen back if you burn it?

Yes. When you burn hydrogen the product is water. If you pass an electric current through that water you can split it back into hydrogen and oxygen.
