What is the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of hydrogen gas?

Write a balanced chemical equation for the combustion of hydrogen gas. If you start with 8 g of hydrogen and you produce 55 g of water what is the % yield?

the combustion of gasoline produces carbon dioxide and water.?

assume gasoline to be pure octane (C8H18) and calculate the mass (in kg) of carbon dioxide that is added to the atmosphere per 1.0 kg of octane burned. (Hint: begin by writing a balanced equation for the combustion reaction).

explain, please! thanks!

Can an internal combustion engine run on hydrogen peroxide?

Hitler ran both his uboats and his V2 rockets on hydrogen peroxide. I don’t know what adaptations were used, but if I had the time and facilities I would get a small internal combustion engine that had a carburetor with interchangeable jets, and for which a lot of jets were available (motorcycles?) and buy some hydrogen peroxide in the drugstore and see if I could get it to kick over.
Thing is — hydrogen peroxide is getting cheaper because of new technology. And there’s a huge new plant coming on line in a few years, I think maybe in Belgium, that will further reduce the cost.
At a certain point in the rise of gasoline prices it would be good if we could shift to it. Of course the byproduct of hydrogen combustion is water instead of carbon monoxide, so that’s good too.
Any mechanics out there feel like fooling around and maybe standing the world on its ear and suggesting to OPEC some interesting things they could do with their oil?

Do you know about the salt water combustion engine?

This has been hiding out at the edges of the news for about five months. Major news agencies seem to not be interested. The technology is fully vetted.

Do you think that the only cars we will be allowed to have will HAVE to use gasoline, because of the political power of the oil industry?
sorry doober – but apparently you did not follow the link.

The efficacy of Krazius’s engine is not open to debate. The debate is over why the technology is being ignored. Just as the 150 mpg car announced today will be ignored.

Hydrogen and oxgen combustion has the same power as a gasoline engine ? pls automotive engineers only TY?

I have tried to put a voltage intensifier to increase the current in the electrolysis of water by using a special catalyst. I just remember the first law of electrolysis and I try to make a device that is needed to ionize the water more efficiently to split the compund water. the current is directly proportional for the ionization of waters compound to have production of hydrogen and oxygen.Ffor a short time I luckily started the engine with just the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen with the same power as of a gasoline engine w/out modyfying any part of the engine. by just installing it to the engine of a 1988 Sunny Nissan. the exhaust is water vapor. but I didn’t run it from a long distance. having problem with the moisture that makes my motor oil diluted. some of the water vapor are seeping to the piston rings. and the oil in the crank case is starting to have a thick sludge that affects the performance of the engine. Stan meyer Is also using a device called a voltage intensifier circuit
