Why is petroleum flammable?
it is flammable because it contains more amount of hydrocarbons mainly due to the presence of methane and ethane
Does oxygen catch fire easily?
No. Oxygen is not flammable. Rather, it supports the combustion of flammable materials. Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and some flammable material. Higher concentrations of oxygen will cause a fire to burn hotter and faster.
What chemical is highly flammable?
Methane is highly flammable.
What are two substances that are flammable?
Methane and Hydrogen
How do you separate oxygen from methane?
Methane does not have oxygen in the bond.

What chemical is highly flammable?
Methane is highly flammable.
Is methane toxic?
First of all, methane (CH4) is explosive. It's not merely flammable in its gaseous state. Methane, though not toxic, can displace oxygen and an individual in a methane infiltrated environment can asphixiate. It is also rates fairly high as a greenhouse gas, and its on the list of "bad" things in the atmosphere that contribute to the increase in the rate at which the earth is warming. A link can be found below.
Is methane safe?
No. Methane is toxic to inhale and very flammable.
Is poop flammable?
No. But the gas (methane) that Poop or foodwaste produce is flammable.
Is methane harmful in any way?
Methane is extremely flammable and may form explosive mixtures with air. Methane is violently reactive with oxidizers, halogens, and some halogen-containing compounds. Methane is also an asphyxiant and may displace oxygen in an enclosed space.
What are two substances that are flammable?
Methane and Hydrogen
Is liquified oxygen flammable?
Oxygen is not flammable but is necessary for combustion.
Is methane gas combustible?
Yes. Methane gas is highly flammable, which is why we burn it as fuel.
How do you separate oxygen from methane?
Methane does not have oxygen in the bond.
