The atomic hydrogen torch is also known as oxy- hydrogen torch. These atoms are produced through dihydrogen dissociation with the help of an electric arc which results in huge amount of energy.
Energy released = 435.88 kJ mol-1
This energy is used in generation of 4000 K temperature which is used in cutting and welding of metals.
Therefore, atomic hydrogen torches are used for this purpose i.e., it allows to recombine on the particular surface to be welded for the generation of particular temperature.
Answered by Pragya Singh | 1 year agoWhat do you understand by the terms :
(i) Hydrogen economy
(ii) Hydrogenation
(iii) ‘syngas’
(iv) Water-gas shift reaction
(v) Fuel cell?
Do you expect different products in solution when aluminium (III) chloride and potassium chloride treated separately with
(i) alkaline water
(ii) acidified water, and
(iii) normal water. Write equations wherever necessary.
What do you expect the nature of hydrides is, if formed by elements of atomic numbers 15, 19, 23 and 44 with dihydrogen? Compare their behaviour with water.
How can saline hydrides remove traces of water from organic compounds?
