It can damage your lungs and eyes.
No hydrogen will not burn in the absence of air unless another oxidizer is present.
No, oxygen itself does not burn. Oxygen only supports and accelerates combustion when there is a fuel source present. So, while the match may burn more intensely in pure oxygen, the oxygen itself does not burn.
Yes. Oxygen is needed for flammable objects to burn. In increased concentrations oxygen will cause flammable materials to burn faster, and more intensely and allows them to ignite at lower temperatures.
You blow pure oxygen on it or supply it with pure oxygen. It gets white hot to the point that it will blind you.
Steel wool burns faster in pure oxygen compared to air. This is because pure oxygen provides a more efficient environment for combustion, allowing the steel wool to ignite and burn more rapidly. In air, the presence of other gases dilutes the oxygen, slowing down the burning process.
Any substance that burns in air is likely to burn faster in pure oxygen, if all other conditions are equal.
Lungs provide the body with oxygen. Oxygen is not exactly a fuel, but oxygen is necessary in order to burn fuel. Fuel for the body comes in the form of food, and oxygen is necessary to metabolize the food.
yep. It will burn your lungs so yes you will die. ↲ too muc h oxygen will make your lungs burn too not trying to make you paranoid or anything if your breathing is normally just don't in to a place with just oxygen. ↲ hope i answered you question
In general, no, it accelerates / increases fires. If the fire is based on methane, say, and the oxygen displaces all the methane, then the fire will go out. If the oxygen is passed through / across the fire at something approaching supersonic speed, if the fire doesn't go out, it *will* go somewhere else.
No. Oxygen itself is not flammable, but it is necessary for fire. Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and a flammable substance. Fire is possible on Earth because ordinary air is 21% oxygen. Pure oxygen is considered a fire hazard because higher concentrations of oxygen will make it easier for a fire to ignite and will allow it to burn hotter and faster than normal.
Oxygen is not actually explosive. In an acetylene torch, the torch burns the acetylene and the oxygen only facilitates combustion, so it is not burning the oxygen. Hospitals warn of the explosion hazard of oxygen because pure oxygen accelerates the burn of fuel so fast that it is like an explosion. In common air there is roughly 79% nitrogen and 21% oxygen, all fuels must have oxygen to burn and when pure oxygen is introduced the fire then has more oxygen thus it accelerates the fire.
Oxygen can support combustion, but iron itself does not burn in typical atmospheric conditions. However, iron can oxidize, forming iron oxide (rust), in the presence of oxygen and moisture. This process is a slow form of oxidation rather than rapid combustion.
