What is it called when carbon is released from a campfire?
It is termed to be combustion. Or carbon emission. Burning wood releases the carbon that was stored in the wood.
What is the main eviromental problems in Transylvania?
The most important problems are: deforestation, pollution of waters, soils and atmosphere, soils degradation, soils erosion.
What is the temperature of wood at room temperature?
Everything that has been in the room for a long enough time to reach thermal equilibrium will be at the same temperature, including wood. So if room temp. is 70 F then the wood is 70 F.
Substances that are poor conductors of heat?
After the published tables the silica aerogel is a very good thermal insulator.
What are alternatives to oil and natural gas?
Renewable energy (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass and biofuel). coal,wood
What has the author Francis C Beall written?
Francis C. Beall has written: 'Thermal degradation of wood components' -- subject- s -: Chemistry, Decomposition - Chemistry -, Thermal analysis, Wood
How do Insects effect the degradation of wood?
By eating the wood.
Is wood thermal conductor?
Wood is a thermal insulator. It is a poor conductor of heat.

What energy transformations takes place when wood is burned?
Well the energy transformation that takes place when wood is burned is CHEMICAL ENERGY---> THERMAL ENERGY.
What is chip degtadation and how can it occur and how can it affect the papermaking process?
Chip degradation is obviously degradation of chip (wood). Chip degradation occur during open storage. Degradation may be due to insect attack or due to atmospheric decomposition. Chip degradation lower the pulp yield and lower fiber strength resulting in lower paper strength.
What is it called when carbon is released from a campfire?
It is termed to be combustion. Or carbon emission. Burning wood releases the carbon that was stored in the wood.
Which does ice melt slower plastic or wood?
Two identical pieces of ice, each placed on identically sized and shaped blocks of plastic and wood at the same temperature, will melt at a rate proportional to the thermal conductivity and the thermal mass of the object they are on. Generally, wood is a better thermal insulator than plastic. Short answer: wood.
Which forms of energy is released when wood is burned?
Chemical potential energy is released as heat, light, and sound when wood is burnt.
Why does the glass on a window pane feel cooler to the touch than the wood frame surrounding the glass?
Wood is a better thermal insulator than glass, which is easily cooled.
When wood burns is it thermal energy converted to chemical energy?
No, it's the other way around. Burning releases the chemical energy in wood and turns it into thermal energy(heat.
What materials are used to make a thermal curtain liner?
wood?
