Why paraffin oil have such a high boiling point?
paraffin must be heated strongly as the temperaure needed for it to thermally decompose is high. also, this ensures enough gas is produced for cracking experiment
How does burning parraffin in a greenhouse help plants photosynthesise?
Burning paraffin produces carbon dioxide, which is needed for photosynthesis.
Which two substances are produced when burning paraffin?
Carbon Dioxide and water
The substances in paraffin do not chage when a candle burns?
When candles burn, new substances form.
Where is paraffin wax found?
Paraffin wax is produced by refining petroleum. All crude oil contains paraffin, and one of the byproducts of the refining process is a wax-and-oil mix called slack wax. When they separate the wax and oil, they get paraffin. So...paraffin wax comes from every country that has an oil refinery.
What is produced when you burn coal oil and gas?
heat energy is produced when you burn coal,oil and natral gas
Is it harmful to burn paraffin in the form of a candle?
Paraffin wax candles have been around for centuries. Most candles are made from paraffin.
Is paraffin a solid gas or liquid?
gas
What makes a white and colored candle burn?
Not depending on the color, it's always the wax that lets the candle burn. Near the flame, the wax melts until its gaseous and this paraffin gas is burned.
Why paraffin oil have such a high boiling point?

Why is it dangerous to burn paraffin in a poorly ventilated room?
There is not enough oxygen for the paraffin to burn fully, producing poisonous carbon monoxide instead of non-toxic carbon dioxide.
What is the poisonous gas produced when fuels don't burn completely?
Carbon Monoxide
What is the state of paraffin oil at a temperature of 450?
Paraffin oil is a gas at 450 oC.
What physical state is paraffin in when it burns?
Paraffin is thermally decomposed by burning; carbon dioxide and water vapors are produced.
Why do gardeners sometimes burn paraffin oil?
Paraffin oil is considered as Horticultural Oils, which is burned for the purpose of pest control in the garden.
What gas will be produced when you burn polyester?
Polyesters are materials of the form -COO-R-COO-R-. What is produced will depend on exactly what R is (and there are many possibilities), but one gas that will certainly be produced is carbon dioxide.
How does burning parraffin in a greenhouse help plants photosynthesise?
Burning paraffin produces carbon dioxide, which is needed for photosynthesis.
