Subject: RE: BS - Science Question for Amos or Wolfgang
Having discussed to great length the rotation of water as it departs, can we answer another question which has bothered me since middle school? Water is comprised of Hydrogen (2 parts) and Oxygen...Chemically written as H2O. Hydrogen is the same gas that caused the Hindenburg to explode...Oxygen supports combustion...so why won't water burn??
