What chemical property of helium makes it a better choice than hydrogen for use in airships?
It's very light (only hydrogen gas is less dense than helium), it's relatively cheap, and (most importantly) it's not flammable (hydrogen gas is--the Hindenburg was filled with hydrogen gas).
What else can I help you with?
what gas is more suitable for filling balloons and airships?
Helium is the most suitable gas for filling balloons and airships because it is lighter than air and non-flammable, making it a safer alternative to hydrogen. While hydrogen is also lighter and provides better lift, it poses significant fire hazards. Helium's inert properties ensure safety during use, which is why it is the preferred choice for both recreational and commercial applications.
Is hydrogen found in water?
The most common compound of hydrogen and oxygen is better known as "Water".Hydrogen and oxygen also forms Hydrogen Peroxide.
What is the chemical formula for KH2PO4?
It is better known as Monopotassium phosphate, also potassium dihydrogen phosphate.
What type of element is better than helium?
In terms of buoyancy, hydrogen is better than helium because it is lighter. However, hydrogen is flammable, so helium is typically preferred for safety reasons.
Why is helium used in hot air balloon?
It isn't. Hot air Ballons use Hot Air. Hot air being lighter and therefore less dense than normal air allow the balloon to float.
Why don't they use hydrogen gas in airships nowadays?
Hydrogen gas is highly flammable and poses a significant safety risk. Therefore, helium gas is commonly used in airships today as it is non-flammable and safer. Additionally, helium has a higher lifting capacity compared to hydrogen, which allows for better control and stability of the airship.
What is the chemical equation of hydrogen monoxide?
Hydrogen monoxide does not exist; it is a fictional compound name created to sound like water (H2O). The correct chemical formula for water is H2O, consisting of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom bonded together.
What are the differences between polar protic and aprotic solvents in terms of their ability to solvate ions and facilitate chemical reactions?
Polar protic solvents have hydrogen atoms that can form hydrogen bonds with ions, making them better at solvating ions and facilitating chemical reactions compared to aprotic solvents, which lack hydrogen atoms capable of forming hydrogen bonds with ions.
Is hydrogen found in water?
The most common compound of hydrogen and oxygen is better known as "Water".Hydrogen and oxygen also forms Hydrogen Peroxide.
What is the chemical formula for KH2PO4?
It is better known as Monopotassium phosphate, also potassium dihydrogen phosphate.
Which is better hydrogen car or electric car?
hydrogen
Is hydrogen better or car or electric car and why?
Not because hydrogen is more expensive and there are better electric charging point networks than hydrogen worldwide.
Why is the loss of hydrogen better for you?
You are made of approx 70% water, all that water is 2/3 parts hydrogen, so no losing hydrogen is not better for you.
Would an hydrogen balloon float better than a helium one?
Hydrogen is lighter than helium. So hydrogen balloon will float better than helium.
Is filtered or bottled water an element?
Neither because water is H2O which has the two elements hydrogen and oxygen. a better name for water is dihydrogen monoxide because of its negative affects.
Is community property or separate property better?
in massachuetts, is inherited property separate property or does ie revert to marital property upon marriage
What chemical property does chromium have that makes it better choice for car bumper than silver?
It does not easily oxidize in the air. Silver does (tarnish) corrode, while chromium does not, in normal atmospheric conditions.
