Quick question regarding hydrogen ignition pressure

[Lahearle]

If I combine a compound which contain a ratio of 3/8 hydrogen/oxygen and heat it to 2600 F, according to PV = nRT 

how much will the pressure increase when it reaches ignition temperature (1058 F), and how big do I need the container to avoid it exploding and spewing lava everywhere?

Yes I am noob so please talk stupid to me. 

The compound has only hydrogen, carbon, oxygen and nitrogen.

First what is the volume of your container

Roughly you can calculate you have 3 part H2 and 8 part O2 means together 11 part equal to mol.

Convert Fahrenheit to Kelvin

1058 F = 843,15 K

p = 11 mol*8.314 J/molK* 843,15K/ V m^3

Won't the answer depend on what the products of decomposition are going to be, as well as on the enthalpy change, which may heat the mixture further ? Both of these will depend on what your undisclosed compound is.

Also, why do you speak of "lava"? Lava is molten rock and rocks do not ignite, as a rule.
