What is the lowest temperature gasoline can ignite?
Typically the lowest temperature that gasoline will produce enough vapors to ignite at is -40 degrees Fahrenheit.
What Temperature hydrogen self ignite at?
9 million
What problem will be caused if a fuel has an ignition temperature below the average room temperature?
A fuel with an ignition temperature less than the room temperature would spontaneously ignite - it would not be suitable for fuel because it would burn itself up before it could be used to power an engine.
What elements make up gunpowder?
tree elements.a nitrate, typically potassium nitrate (KNO3), which supplies oxygen for the reaction;charcoal, which provides carbon and other fuel for the reaction, simplified as carbon (C);sulfur (S), which, while also serving as a fuel, lowers the temperature required to ignite the mixture, thereby increasing the rate of combustion.
Where does the word diesel come from?
'Diesel' comes the German engineer, Rudoplf Diesel. Diesel invented an internal combustion engine that would auto ignite, when the fuel vapours were compressed to a high degree. This increased the temperature of the vapour to the point were it would auto ignite. The fuel that he used was slightly different from petrol, which needed an electrical spark to ignite. This slightly different fuel is now known as 'Diesel'.
What happens when you smash gunpowder with a hammer?
Nothing.. Gunpowder does not impact-detonate, which is why bullets have a "primer" that will ignite the gunpowder when it is struck. Nothing.. Gunpowder does not impact-detonate, which is why bullets have a "primer" that will ignite the gunpowder when it is struck.
What do you need gunpowder for?
To ignite a reaction.
What will ignite gunpowder?
Heat or an impact.
Could you ignite gunpowder with a piezoelectric crystal?
Yes.
Can a spark ignite gunpowder?
Yes sparks can set gunpowder off. There is a gun called a Flintlock, used mostly in the 18th and 19th centuries, it has a flint which creates a spark that ignites the gunpowder.
What temperature does natural gas ignite?
Natural gas ignite 600 to700c
What temperature does jet fuel ignite?
It is enough for a spark to ignite any fuel.
Is gumpowder in fireworks?
Gunpowder is used in artillery and roman candles. In artillery shells, there is a container of gunpowder that shoots the shell into the air and when the time burns to the inside of the shell, there is gunpowder inside that ignites the stars. In roman candles, gunpowder is placed underneath each of the stars in the tube to ignite and shoot them into the air. A long fus eis placed inside the tube to ignite the sections one after another. Some rockets have artillery shells on them without the gunpowder container on the bottom.
What is the lowest temperature gasoline can ignite?
Typically the lowest temperature that gasoline will produce enough vapors to ignite at is -40 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is the flash point of gunpowder explosive?
A "flash point" is the temperature at which a LIQUID gives off a vapor that can be ignited. It is NOT the temperature at which ignition takes place. Gunpowder, being a solid, does not HAVE a flash point. It has an ignition temperature around 450 degrees F, but the exact temperature varies with the composition of the gunpowder.
What Temperature hydrogen self ignite at?
9 million
What is the minimum flashpoint?
The temperature at which point a flammable can ignite.
