Is Agent Orange illegal?

After its use in the 1960s, Agent Orange was banned by the U.S. in 1971 and remaining stocks were taken from Vietnam and the U.S. to Johnston Atoll, a U.S. controlled island about 700 miles SE of Hawaii, where it was destroyed in 1978. There is no 'Agent Orange' in Vietnam or anywhere else today.

Does napalm burn underwater?

Napalm is basically thick oil or jelly mixed with fuel (petrol, gasoline). ... Versions of Napalm B containing white phosphorus will even burn underwater (if there is trapped oxygen in folds of cloth etc.) so jumping into rivers and lakes won't help those unfortunate souls attacked with this vile weapon.

Is homemade napalm illegal?

International law does not specifically prohibit the use of napalm or other incendiaries against military targets, but use against civilian populations was banned by the United Nations (UN) Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW) in 1980.

Is white phosphorus a war crime?

George Monbiot stated that he believed the firing of white phosphorus by US forces directly at the combatants in Fallujah in order to flush them out so they could then be killed was in contravention of the Chemical Weapons Convention and, therefore, a war crime.

Can you be on fire underwater?

Regular fire, i.e. wood or paper burning - no. Because there isn't enough oxygen to start or sustain regular combustion. But there are kinds of combustion which work underwater. ... You can light a strip of magnesium, and the combustion actually produces oxygen, which is then used to sustain the combustion.

Do flares stay lit underwater?

Calcium flares are used underwater to illuminate submerged objects.

Why can't you have fire underwater?

The oxidizer is the oxygen in the surrounding atmosphere. These two ingredients can sustain a candle flame. In the case of an underwater torch, both the combustible substance and the oxidizer must be supplied by hoses leading down to the torch, since no free oxygen is available underwater.

Why does magnesium burn underwater?

When magnesium interacts with water, it will form a hydrogen gas that ignites violently due to the excessive heat and oxygen supply. When it reacts, it will burn hot enough to decrease the water molecule, which turns to a Hydrogen Gas.

Can you put out a magnesium fire?

You can put out a magnesium fire, if you are trained and confident doing so, by using a Class D fire extinguisher that is specifically designed to extinguish flammable metal fires.

Does magnesium explode?

Magnesium metal and its alloys are explosive hazards; they are highly flammable in their pure form when molten or in powder or in ribbon form. Burning or molten magnesium metal reacts violently with water.

Can magnesium burn in vacuum?

So, while Magnesium can burn in an environment devoid of free O2, it cannot burn in an environment completely devoid of the Oxygen element. Practical examples: Magnesium would not burn in outer space where there is nothing to react with.

Does magnesium burn in space?

The carbon dioxide will melt, expand, and displace the free oxygen in any given space. Whatever is in that space will get smothered. That is, unless what's in that space is burning magnesium. ... It will rip the oxygen right off the carbon dioxide molecule so that it can keep burning.

What temperature does magnesium catch fire?

Flame temperatures of magnesium and magnesium alloys can reach 3,100 °C (5,610 °F), although flame height above the burning metal is usually less than 300 mm (12 in).

What is the white smoke from burning magnesium?

jpg. Magnesium, a group IIA alkaline earth metal burns in air with a bright white flame, producing a white smoke of solid magnesium oxide. What remains after burning is solid magnesium oxide.
