no thats completely stupid. butane reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water
Carbon dioxide contains carbon and oxygen. Water contains hydrogen and water. Therefore, to combine with oxygen to form CO2 and H2O, butane must contain carbon and hydrogen.
It depends on the fuel and how well it burns. For example, methane, ethane, propane, butane, petrol, ethanol, sugar, etc. will give water & carbon dioxide if burnt fully; however, imperfect burning can produce carbon monoxide or carbon. Burning hydrogen, on the other hand, produces water.
Reaction that takes place when magnesium burns in air= Magnesium + Oxygen = Magnesium Oxide (magnesia)
It is a Oxidation reaction.
no thats completely stupid. butane reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water
Any burning (oxidation reaction) produce carbon dioxide.
the reaction with butane is a combustion reaction producing CO2 and H2O as the products 2C4H10 + 13O2 = 8CO2 +10H2O However as copper burns in oxygen gas to form the oxide some people might say that that "combusted" - but of course no CO2 is produced.
A match burns to produce fire. It burns because of the reaction between the sulfur in the match and the object it is striking.
S + O2 à SO2 This is a combustion reaction
Because burning (combustion) is an oxidation reaction and hydrogen is not implied.
Petroleum distillates. Gas causes a combustion reaction in cars to produce energy.
Water is formed when hydrogen gas burns (reacts) with oxygen (from air) 2 H2(g) + O2(g) --> 2H2O(l)
Because exothermic change releases energy.
Mostly the magnesium is reacting with oxygen to produce magnesium oxide. 2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO But some of the magnesium reacts with nitrogen to produce magnesium nitride. 3Mg + N2 --> Mg3N2
This is an oxydation reaction.
Carbon dioxide contains carbon and oxygen. Water contains hydrogen and water. Therefore, to combine with oxygen to form CO2 and H2O, butane must contain carbon and hydrogen.
