Hydrogen is a combustible gas , but why does it blows off a burning splinter brought towards it?

Naveen Sharma 8 years, 8 months ago

Ans. Hydrogen and Oxygen (air under normal laboratory conditions) when mixed together form an explosive mixture.  So, when a burning splinter is brought near the gas mixture - it explodes.

Since the amount of gas is very small only a tiny pop sound is produced. This in turn extinguishes the splinter. If a larger amount of hydrogen is taken a massive explosion can take place.
