What else can I help you with?
Why there is not any other element that can be used in place of oxygen in burning of fuels?
Fuel will burn with many other elements, especially Chlorine or Fluorine. The reason Oxygen is used so often is that is it very common and easily available in the atmosphere.
What element do other elements need to burn?
Oxygen
Does magnesium burn in the absence of oxygen?
Magnesium can burn in the absence of elemental oxygen, yes. This is because it is such a strong reducing agent that it can essentially steal oxygen from substances such as water and carbon dioxide.
What elements to you get when you burn hydrogen with oxygen?
Hydrogen and oxygen are already elements. You don't get elements as a product. You get water, which is a compound.
Does fluorine burn?
Fluorine is a highly reactive element and can ignite or burn in the presence of certain materials like hydrocarbons or powdered metals. When fluorine burns, it forms extremely strong and toxic compounds like hydrogen fluoride. It is important to handle fluorine with extreme caution due to its reactivity.
Does germanium burn?
Not really. It will combine with oxygen or chlorine / fluorine, but poorly.
Is fluorine combustible?
Yes it is flammable!. Fluorine gas is the most reactive of all the elements and quickly attacks all metals - steel wool bursts into flames when exposed to it! there u go! im sure you wanted to know this so there you go kids or adults.
What is the substance formed when elements burn in oxygen?
Those would be the "oxides" of the elements burned.
Has different properties than the elements that make it up?
Water. You can burn oxygen and you can burn hydrogen but you can't burn water.
How does diamond react to other elements?
Diamond is resistant to most chemical reactions due to its strong carbon-carbon bonds. It does not react with acids, bases, or most other elements at room temperature. However, diamond can react with oxygen at high temperatures to form carbon dioxide.
Is there oxogyn on the sun?
There is small portion of oxygen about 0.77% in the Sun. Additional tip for clarification: Sun didn't burn with oxygen, this ball of fire burn from nuclear fusion reaction.
Does fluorine react easily?
Very easily. According to the article given by the link wood will start to burn spontaneously in a jet of fluorine without the application of a spark.
