Does methane on combustion produces carbon black?

no it means it was an incomplete combustion causing pure Carbon (carbon monoxide or sut).


What is reaction for complete combustion of pure carbon fuel?

Pure carbon combusts in an oxygen atmosphere to produce carbon dioxide and heat. C + O2 --> CO2


What is a combustion analysis used for?

Combustion analysis is used in chemistry to determine the elementary form of a pure compound. This is done by using a form of heating the sample so the results can be properly analyzed.


What will happen if we burn wax?

The combustion of wax produces carbon dioxide gas and water vapor (if combustion is complete.) Incomplete combustion can result in the production of carbon monoxide gas or pure carbon (soot.)


Is combustion incomplete or complete 2C 2 H3 OH plus O2 - CO2 plus H20?

2C2H3OH + 5O2 --> 4CO2 + 4H2O The equation as written appears to be complete combustion, but in reality it probably would not be complete combustion. Usually combustion is incomplete, producing other products such as carbon monoxide and pure carbon (soot).


What is the rate or speed of combustion in a high concentration of oxygen pure oxygen compared to combustion of a low concentration of oxygen air?

Faster. Beyond that it's hard to say without knowing more details about the rate equation.


What is dioxygenation?

Dioxygen is pure oxygen gas. It is highly flammable and supports combustion in various reactions.


What is the equation for complete combustion for Citronella Oil?

An oil is not a pure substance, it is a mixture; combustion of organic materials release carbon dioxide and water. If other elements exist in the molecule also other gases are released or a solid residue remain.


Can you run a combustion engine on pure hydrogen?

Sure, It takes a special intake and fuel supply system modification, but works good, just expensive.


What process can make pure water?

If pure water is required the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen in a previously evacuated inert container would provide the purest result


What does a fire consist of?

Pure energy. Fire is the resultant manifestation of a chemical reaction between a fuel [there are many different kinds] and Oxygen [usually in the air, but also if in pure form]. As a result of the chemical reaction, a great deal of energy is released in the form of heat and light. The visible portion of the "flames" is the result of glowing particles [carbon] which have not yet been exposed to, and mixed with , enough Oxygen to be at the right mixture [percentage of fuel and oxygen capable of combustion] to combust [burn]. If the perfect [stoichometric] mixture, for example, of pure Carbon and pure Oxygen are burned, the final products of combustion are light, heat, and Carbon Dioxide. Or if the stoichometric mixture is pure natural gas [Methane] and pure Oxygen, then the the products of combustion would be light, heat, Carbon Dioxide, and water vapor. All of our air polluton [from burning of fuels] results from the use of fuels which are contaminated with other elements and compounds.


Why can't pure oxygen ignite?

Oxygen is neither combustible nor flammable. It supports the combustion of a combustible substance. For example, if you light a match and expose it to pure oxygen, the flame will grow larger and brighter while it's in the oxygen, but the oxygen itself will not ignite.
