What category does argon go under?
Argon, in group 18, period 3, is a noble gas.
What does argon gas do to a flame?
Argon gas cannot react with most substances, and can extinguish a flame if it displaces enough of the oxygen around the burning material. Argon is used as an inert gas in electric arc welding to prevent oxygen from reacting with the heated materials, such as aluminum and titanium.
What would you expect to happen if you mixed argon and sodium together?
Since argon is a noble gas, I wouldn't expect much to happen; specifically, I wouldn't expect any chemical reaction.
What gas does not react at all it is used in light bulbs?
Argon and helium are a couple of inert gasses used in lamps.
What gas to use for plasma cutting?
Oxygen and acetylene. A cutting head for an oxy-acetelyne torch has a trigger with greatly increases the oxygen in the mixture when activated. To cut, the excess oxygen in the flame basically burns the metal away.
Is argon gas bad for you?
Argon gas is generally considered non-toxic and does not pose a health risk to humans in normal conditions. However, like any gas, inhaling large quantities of argon can displace oxygen in the air and lead to asphyxiation. It's important to use argon gas in a well-ventilated area to prevent any potential safety hazards.
Do you need argon to live?
No. Argon is an inert gas that only makes up 1% of air. It is of little consequence to us.
Can argon be stored with oxygen or acetylene?
Argon is an inert gas- it does not react with any other gasses. While fuel gasses (acetylene) and oxygen must be separated during storage due to the fire hazard, there IS no fire hazard from an inert gas. It may be stored with fuel gasses or with oxygen.
What toxic effects does argon have on humans?
Argon is a noble gas and is generally considered non-toxic to humans. Inhaling argon in its pure form is not harmful as it is chemically inert and non-reactive. However, if argon displaces oxygen in an enclosed space, it can lead to asphyxiation due to oxygen deprivation.
What are the health hazards of argon?
Argon is an inert gas. It is non-toxic and can only present a problem if it displaces air (or the oxygen in air). This may lead to suffocation. As long as there is "enough" oxygen in the air you breathe, any argon you breathe won't affect you.
Is argon gas?
Yes, argon is a noble gas.
Do a noble gas have argon?
Argon is a noble gas
What element that is a gas is used in house light bulbs?
argon
Is argon a gas liquid or synthetic?
Argon is a gas. It is not synthetic.
What instrument measures the purity of Argon gas?
An argon gas analyzer measures the purity of Argon gas. The analyzer can be used to determine the actual content of Argon gas in a specific sample.
What is the gas symbol for argon?
The symbol for the element argon is Ar.
Is argon hard?
No, argon is a gas.
