Typically, if you want to set something on fire, you use, for obvious reasons, a flame. A lighter should do the trick.

What chemical property is shown when hydrogen maeks a slpint ignite?

I think you mean oxygen. However, hydrogen itself might ignite if heated enough by the splint. The chemical property is, anyway, either carbon or hydrogen's affinity with oxygen.


What Temperature hydrogen self ignite at?

Hydrogen can self-ignite at temperatures as low as 500 degrees Celsius (932 degrees Fahrenheit) in air. This is due to its low ignition energy and wide flammability range.


What happens when fire mixes with hydrogen?

When fire mixes with hydrogen, it can result in combustion. Hydrogen is highly flammable and when it comes into contact with fire, it can ignite and cause a rapid release of energy in the form of heat and light. This reaction can be explosive in certain conditions.


How much oxygen can be present before hydrogen ignites?

Hydrogen can ignite when the concentration of oxygen in the air is between 4% and 75%. Below 4%, there is not enough oxygen for ignition, and above 75%, the mixture becomes too rich to ignite.


Why polyvinyl chloride cannot dispose of by burning?

Two reasons: it's very difficult to ignite, and if you DO ignite it the smoke contains lethal hydrogen chloride gas.


Is hydrogen flamable?

Yes, hydrogen is flammable. It can easily ignite and burn in the presence of oxygen, producing heat and water vapor.


Is Zinc and dilute Sulphuric acid gives Hydrogen gas for filling balloon?

No, because it is ignite.


Can you ignite Neptune?

No, you can't ignite Neptune. While much of Neptune's atmosphere is hydrogen, there is no oxygen there to support combustion.


When sodium is dissloved in water why fire starts burning?

When sodium is dissolved in water, it undergoes a rapid exothermic reaction with the water, releasing a significant amount of heat. This heat generated can ignite the hydrogen gas that is also produced during the reaction, resulting in a fire. The intense heat and energy released during this reaction can cause the hydrogen gas to ignite explosively.


What will happen if you put sodium in water?

When sodium is put in water, it will react vigorously to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. This reaction releases a large amount of heat and can cause the hydrogen gas to ignite, resulting in a fizzing or popping sound. Extreme caution should be taken when conducting this experiment due to the explosive nature of the reaction.


Why does hydrogen catch fire when sodium reacts with water?

When sodium reacts with water, it releases hydrogen gas which is highly flammable. The reaction is exothermic, meaning it produces heat that can ignite the hydrogen gas, leading to a fire. The high reactivity of sodium with water results in a vigorous reaction that can be dangerous if not properly controlled.


Is hydrogen a stable gas?

Hydrogen gas is stable under certain conditions but can be reactive under others. It is flammable and can ignite in the presence of oxygen. In its elemental form, hydrogen is colorless, odorless, and tasteless.
