What products in an equation shows that incomplete combustion has occurred?
Products that indicate incomplete combustion include carbon monoxide (CO) and soot or unburned carbon particles. This is because incomplete combustion results in insufficient oxygen supply for complete conversion of fuel into carbon dioxide and water.
What are the products of combustion of a marshmallow?
If the combustion is complete, carbon dioxide and water.
What does combustion form?
The resulting products of the complete combustion are water and carbon dioxide.
Why does excess supply of oxygen lead to complete combustion?
Complete combustion of a hydrocarbon yields carbon dioxide & water; incomplete combustion yields carbon monoxide & water. By having excess oxygen you have enough oxygen to ensure complete combustion. For example the combustion of methane (CH4):complete combustion: CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2Oincomplete combustion: CH4 + 1.5O2 --> CO + 2H2OAs you can see you need a 1/2 mole less of oxygen for the incomplete combustion of methane. So as long as you have twice the amount (in terms of moles) of oxygen as methane you will ensure complete combustion. So anything in excess of that will also ensure complete combustion.
What is the main product of complete combustion?
The main products of complete combustion are carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O).
What are the products of combustion for coal and petroleum?
Complete combustion will result in the production of CO2 and H2O.
What is the equation for complete combustion of fossil fuels?
The general equation for the complete combustion of a hydrocarbon fuel such as fossil fuels is: hydrocarbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water For example, the complete combustion of methane (CH4) would be: CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O.
What do you call the heat released when 1 mole of a substance undergoes complete combustion?
You think probable to molar heat, expressed in J/mol.
What process has occurred when sulfur dioxide gas forms sulfate particles?
Combustion
What are two indicators that a combustion reaction has occurred?
energy is released and oxygen is consumed
Is more oxygen used in an incomplete combustion than a complete combustion?
Yes, more oxygen is used in incomplete combustion compared to complete combustion because incomplete combustion results in the partial burning of the fuel, leading to the formation of more byproducts like carbon monoxide and soot. This requires additional oxygen to combine with these byproducts, using up more oxygen overall.
What is the chemical equation for complete combustion of a hydrocarbon?
The general chemical equation for the complete combustion of a hydrocarbon is: Hydrocarbon + O2 -> CO2 + H2O For example, the combustion of methane (CH4) can be represented as: CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O
