What happens if you combine fuel and oxygen?

Nothing happens if you combine a fuel and oxygen. However, if you then add a source of energy such as a spark of sufficient power, you get a fire, or, in an enclosed space, an explosion.


What happens when two oxygen molecules combine to form a molecule of oxygen?

Chemical bonds are formed and energy is released.

What is the formula for photosynthesis for kids?

carbon dioxide + water + light energy = glucose + oxygen. Photosynthesis is the process that plants use to combine light, water, and carbon dioxide to make glucose for energy and release oxygen.


Do plants produce oxygen from carbon monoixde?

No, plants can use the energy from Sun light to combine water with Carbon dioxide to make sugars and a byproduct of the reaction is the release of Oxygen.


What do you get when you combine one carbon and three oxygen?

How much energy does cereals contain?

The energy in the cereal was stored when the Sun shone on the corn crop and caused carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to be broken down by photosynthesis into carbon and oxygen, thus storing energy. That energy is recovered after you eat the cereal and your muscles then re-combine that carbon with fresh oxygen you take in from the air, and you breathe out carbon dioxide. This can happen because carbon dioxide is in a lower energy state than the same amount of carbon and oxygen existing separately. Forming the carbon-oxygen bond releases energy.


When a candle burns what compounds are combine with oxygen?

Carbon is combined with oxygen forming carbon dioxide.


What new substance if one molecule of carbon combine with two molecule of oxygen?

It is sort of tricky question. One molecule of carbon can combine with only one molecule of oxygen. It can not combine with two molecules of oxygen. Incidentally one molecule of carbon is composed of one atom of carbon. One molecule of oxygen is composed of two atoms of oxygen.
