Escaped hydrogen will probably turn to water fairly rapidly. And by that I mean it will explode.

- fphhotchips 5y agoDepends on the environment that you're in. In an enclosed space: yeah. In open air, unlikely, because the density difference means it rises (and disperses) quickly.
- pfdietz 5y agoIn open air the halflife of hydrogen to oxidation is just a few years, which is much faster than the timescale for hydrogen to be convected up to the homopause.
