If there is an excess of oxygen, the products are carbon dioxide and water.

In a scientific experiment, the two main products of combustion when an alcohol burns are carbon dioxide and water. These two elements are otherwise known as CO2 and H2O.

Methanol + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water.Carbon dioxide and water are the usual products, but carbon and/or carbon monoxide may be formed if the supply of oxygen is restricted.

When a fuel burns this gas is produced?

When a fuel burns, it undergoes a combustion reaction. Combustion has two main products. These products are water and carbon dioxide.


When methanol burns and leaves a residue is it a chemical change?

Combustion is a chemical change. You would expect methanol to be fully oxidised to CO2 and water. Any residue could may be due to impurities or more likely to incomplete combustion which produced sooty carbon residues.


Why is the enthalpy change of combustion for methanol less negative than methane?

The combustion of methanol to form products of H2O and CO2 do not have as much of an energy change compared to methane and a result methanol releases less energy compared to methane. The more negative an enthalpy change is, the more heat it is going to release.


Define products of combustion and describe their implications for fire fighter safety?

Products of combustion are the gasses, particles, and vapors that are created when something burns. Many products of combustion are irritant or toxic, so a fire fighter needs to be protected from them while fighting a fire.


When gasoline burns it changes from gasoline to what?

If full combustion takes place, the products are CO2 and H2O.


How do you use the standard enthalpies of formation to calculate the amount of heat released per kilogram of methanol?

Presumably we are talking combustion of methanol? Methanol burns to make water and carbon dioxide. The energy change from carbon, hydrogen and oxygen to carbon dioxide and water is the same if it is in one step, or via the intermediate step of making ethanol.


Which fuel burns without blackening utensils?

Methanol


Why does methanol burn blue?

Due to the high temperature at which it burns

Ch3oh plus O2--CO2 plus H20 what type of reaaction?

This is a combustion reaction methanol + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water vapor (This is the formula for a complete combustion and there is a fuel methanol reacting with oxygen to create carbon dioxide and water vapor)


Hydrogen burns but not support combustion?

yes


Why is combustion not useful?

It burns fossil fuels
