Why is Carbon produced when something is burnt?

Technically, carbon is not produced when something is burned. Carbon dioxide is produced. And only if the substance being burned contains carbon compounds. Burning separates the carbon from the other elements in the compound and combines it with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide.


What gas is produced by fires?

Mostly carbon dioxide. If the supply of oxygen is restricted, carbon monoxide as well. Other things depend on what is in the burning substance, sulfur will give sulfur dioxide for example, and there may be nitrogen oxides.


What emissions and by-products are produced from burning coal?

Sulphur Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide are by products are produced by burning most fossil fuels, not just coal.


Carbon dioxide is produced by A Respiration B Volcanic Eruptions C Burning Fossil Fuels D All of the Above?

D ; All of them. NB When we breath out )Exhale/Respire) we breath outy carbon dioxide. B ; Volcanoes releaser carbon dioxide, together with other gases e,g, steam, sulphur dioxide, hydrogen sulphide , amongst other gases and liquid rocks. C ; We burn fossil fuels(petrol/gas/diesel) in cars and power stations. They also release CO2.


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.


What gas would be formed if the amount of oxygen combined with fuel ere not enough to form carbon dioxide?

carbon monoxide and other incomplete burning gases


What is released in a addition to carbon dioxide when carbon is burned?

Burning is often incomplete, in which case there is carbon monoxide as well as carbon dioxide. Burning also releases heat. Carbon is seldom burned in a chemically pure form. Impurities are released in the form of ash, or other gases such as sulfur dioxide.


What are the two main products of the combustion of methane and other fossil fuels?

Burning methane releases only carbon dioxide and water.


When a fuel burns it produces carbon dioxide what is the other chemical produced?

water


What are the two ways in which carbon dioxide is added to the?

Respiration by animals is one of the ways through which carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere. The other way is through burning fuels that are carbon-based.


What new substances are produced during burning?

This depends on what you are burning, but in general, you are consuming oxygen (from the atmosphere) and whatever the fuel is (wood, candle wax, gasoline, whatever) and you are producing carbon dioxide, water vapor, and "soot", which is primarily carbon with other elements that will vary by the fuels being consumed.
