The Hindenburg used Hydrogen because the US had a monopoly on Helium. Hydrogen is by far more common than Helium or the other gases lighter than air. Since H2 is the lightest element, it has the greatest lifting capabilities. The US did not nor does it now have a monopoly on Helium it's just that the US found that He is a minor constituent of certain natural gas fields and learned to separate it from the methane ethane mixture.

What happend when an electron in a hydrogen atom moves to a higher level?
It immediately falls back to the ground state and emits a photon of light.
What happend to hydrogen ions during Krebs cycle?
During the Krebs cycle, hydrogen ions (H⁺) are generated as a result of the oxidation of acetyl-CoA and other intermediates. These hydrogen ions are transferred to electron carriers, specifically NAD⁺ and FAD, which are reduced to NADH and FADH₂. This transfer of electrons, along with the accompanying hydrogen ions, is crucial for the subsequent production of ATP in the electron transport chain, where the energy from these electrons is harnessed to create a proton gradient.
Which German ship was sunk carring heavy water?
The German ship that was sunk carrying heavy water was the SS Hydro, also known as the SF Hydro. It was sunk by a Norwegian saboteur team during World War II in order to prevent the Germans from acquiring the heavy water to use in their nuclear weapons program.
Why were all of the hydrogen airships dismantled?
Hydrogen is highly flammable, posing a significant safety risk for airships. This was highlighted by disasters such as the Hindenburg crash in 1937. As a result, the use of hydrogen in airships was phased out in favor of safer alternatives like helium.
How might electrolysis be used to raise the hull of a sunken ship?
A lead acid battery produces oxygen bubbles and hydrogen bubbles when it is being charged. A way to use this principle is to use two electrodes (pieces of metal) seperated from each other in the water. Then hook them up to a source of direct current (DC) electricity. You need to connect the positive to one electrode and the other to the negative. When the electricity is applied hydrogen bubbles will form on one electrode and oxygen bubbles on the other. These could be trapped in a flotation bag to lift the ship. It would take a massive amount of electricity to produce enough bubbles to lift a ship but it would work.
