Yes water is made from one part Oxygen and two parts Hydrogen.

If one were to mix pure Oxygen and Pure hydrogen in these proportions and then set a spark, there would be an explosion as the Hydrogen burned very rapidly to form steem. Such a mixture is very, very dangerous. This is the mixture introduced into the rocket engine to propel an Atlas Rocket.

Please be warned do not play or experiment with hydrogen gas it is dangerous. You should also keep away form pure Oxygen as other materials catch fire and burn very easily and fiercely when the % of Oxygen (normally about 20%) in the air increases.

Does hydrogen react explosively with oxygen?

Yes. If mixed in the right proportions, and ignited, it does react with a great deal of force. Ever see the film of the Hindenburg? That was hydrogen burning in air- which is only 1/5 oxygen. Change that to straight oxygen, and you could have a very loud bang.


Does hydrogen leave residue on burning?

Nothing is left because hydrogen is an element, from which only water is formed when burning (explosively) with oxygen.

Does hydrogen burn explosively?

Hydrogen burns explosively. That's why Lead Acid batteries are never tested for water level with live flame.


What two type of bonds do water molecules form?

Hydrogen and oxygen are the component of elements of water, which give water the chemical formula H2O. There's plenty of oxygen in our air; about 20% of our air is oxygen. Hydrogen, however, isn't so common. It's so light that it rises straight up into the upper atmosphere and often just keeps going right into space.
