What gas in our atmosphere promotes combustion?
Oxygen
What chemical release to atmosphere when dead organism burned?
Carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.
Can you start a fire on the moon?
No. The moon has no atmosphere so there is no oxygen to support combustion.
Where in atmosphere does meteoroids burn?
"where the oxygen level increases then combustion takes place"
Why does complete combustion release more energy than incomplete combustion?
in complete combustion the amount of oxygen is higher/more than the amount of oxygen in incomplete combustion. Heat needs oxygen.
How will burning be affected if nitrogen is not in air to act as a diluent for oxygen?
Nitrogen being diluent for the gases in our atmosphere reduces the combustion process as it dilutes the oxygen in the atmosphere, otherwise every combustion process will be very rapid and will start with a bang. :)
Does The combustion of fossil fuels releases oxygen into the atmosphere?
No on the contrary it converts oxygen imto carbon dioxide, making it poisonous.
What is combustion and how does it relate to oxygen?
The process of combustion is oxidation at a rapid enough rate to produce a flame. Oxidation requires an oxidizing agent. That agent is usually oxygen when a substance combusts in the atmosphere.
What are three ways oxygen gas is removed from the atmosphere and use?
Animals respire. Plants respire. Fire uses oxygen. Rusting uses oxygen. Oxygen is removed from the atmosphere by 1. respiration 2. combustion and 3. gradual oxidation process at normal temperature and pressure. It is added to the atmosphere by photosynthesis of green plants.
Why does a candle not burn on the surface of the moon?
for combustion to take place there has to be heat, oxygen and a fuel. On the moon there is a fuel (wick of the candle) and heat(your fire source) but no oxygen as there is no atmosphere which makes combustion (burning) impossible.
Does oxygen produce energy under combustion?
Oxygen can react with other elements and release energy.
What do plants release into the atmosphere due to photosynthesis?
What do plants release into the atmosphere
