Hydrogen Burn in Air

On the Burning of Hydrogen in Air
Those who discuss the physical properties of the world often study the transformation of various things in the air, and hydrogen is also one of them.

Hydrogen, the light and pure gas. Or ask: "Can hydrogen burn in air?" To understand this, we should investigate its properties and environmental reasons in detail.

Hydrogen is flammable, which is its important property. Looking at its combination with oxygen, if the two meet, if there are appropriate conditions, if it encounters an open flame and reaches the ignition point, it can cause a violent reaction. When burned, hydrogen and oxygen combine to form water. During the process, the fire is bright and accompanied by the release of heat, which can be used for many purposes, such as power and heating.

However, the combustion of hydrogen in air also requires specific conditions. First, the mixing ratio of hydrogen and air must be within a certain range. If the ratio is improper, it may not burn or cause explosion. Second, the existence of the fire source is the key. If there is no fire source to cause it, even if the hydrogen is properly mixed with air, it will not spontaneously ignite.

To sum up, hydrogen can be burned in air, but the appropriate mixing ratio and fire source are required. Only in this light can we make good use of the energy of hydrogen, avoid its risks, and make it the benefit of the world.
