minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink5•9 hours agoMy science teacher had a balloon and he lit the string saying “check this out” The balloon was filled with hydrogen I don’t think that would be okay to do today

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•8 hours agoWe had a community science day when I was little where they did that. Hydrogen is pretty safe to ignite in a birthday balloon.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•8 hours agoI loved it, I’ve never felt such an explosion pressure in my chest!
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•8 hours agoIt’s quite a pop! They exploded some other balloons too, iirc, but I don’t remember too well. I think I was 8.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•edit-28 hours agoI wanna get some hydrogen… My partner would have a heart attack. They can’t even be around a gun shooting or firecrackers, much less that kinda boom! I wouldn’t do that to them.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•edit-27 hours agoFor me it was less intense than a gun or firework, maybe your balloon was bigger lol. You can get hydrogen by running electricity through water but I forget how it works.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•7 hours agoOh yeah his balloon was like a nitrous mafia-sized whip it balloon. It was huuuuge! Also that’s fun! Take out the o… and a H

You get O2 and twice as much H2 iirc
