Will a human be able to survive breathing ionized air?
Question Date: 2007-08-03
Answer 1:
No. It depends on the amount of ionization in the air, I suppose, but plasmas like ionized air will destroy any tissue they come in contact with as long as they remain plasmas.
Answer 2:
Slightly ionized, yes -you do it after every thunderstorm.But ions in larger quantity will damage lung tissue. Strongly ionized air, like in lightning, is going to make a mess. :-)
