What are the main advantages of using a propane wall heater?

There are many advantages to using a propane wall heater instead of natural gas. Propane lasts longer and doesn't give off any oxidants (fumes). Also propane is around the same price as natural gas.


What are three carbon compounds?

Just to make sure I'm covering all senses of the question, I'll give you three 3-carbon compounds: Propane Isopropane 1-chloropropane


Does propane gas engine emit carbon monoxide?

Virtually ANY carbon-based fuel, when burnt, or as the chemists call it, when "oxidized", will give off carbon monoxide. It is a natural byproduct of the chemical reactions that take place in any location where oxygen and carbon come in contact with each other.


What is produced when a fuel burns?

It depends on the fuel and how well it burns. For example, methane, ethane, propane, butane, petrol, ethanol, sugar, etc. will give water & carbon dioxide if burnt fully; however, imperfect burning can produce carbon monoxide or carbon. Burning hydrogen, on the other hand, produces water.


In LPG heavier than air?

LPG is the acronym for "liquid propane gas." I'm fairly confident that it's heavier than air, since it's moved about on gigantic tanker ships that don't drift off the sea. Also, "liquid" is a bit of a give-away in this regard. Propane gas is a hydrocarbon related to "natural" gas. Among other things, they have carbon atoms in common. Air is 80% nitrogen and about 20% oxygen (ignoring trace gasses). Carbon atoms are heavy for hydrogen to carry around. So propane is heavier than air even as a gas. As a gas it is 1.55 times the weight of air.

What are some components of propane?

Liquified propane sold as fuel in the US must be at least 90% pure propane; the rest is typically butane, propylene (5% maximum) and ethyl mercaptan, which is added to give it a noticeable and characteristic odor.


Where can you buy Propane gas stove in Marshall MO?

There is technically no such thing as a propane gas stove. You would buy a gas stove, and then convert it to using propane with a propane conversion kit generally consisting of new burner orifaces Charlie's Appliance in Marshall is a good, reputable, factory-trained dealer. Give him a call.

What is the Empirical formula for carbon dioxide?

Carbon dioxide! We give off carbon dioxide, plants give off oxygen. Its one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.


Why shouldn't gas barbecues be operated in enclosed spaces?

First, the grill will give off carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Secondly if there is a flare up , the flames from the grill could ignite combustibles. Lastly , if the propane tank has not been filled correctly, it could vent excessive vapor into an enclosed area which could be ignited by any source resulting in a big problem.
