Does natural gas burn hotter than propane?
No, propane burns at 2500btu while natural gas burns at only 1012btu. Propane burns over 2 times hotter than natural gas.
When propane is burning and it burns at a rate of 92000 BTU what temperature does that equal?
A British Thermal Unit (BTU) is the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree F. 1 Gallon of Propane is 91,600 BTU's.
Is the combustion of propane endothermic or exothernic?
In the presence of excess oxygen, propane burns to form water and carbon dioxide. When not enough oxygen is present for complete combustion, incomplete combustion occurs when propane burns and forms water, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide.
Why do you have a small flame for your propane heater?
its a pilot light, it burns the propane slowly so the propane doesnt just fill your house so that when you DO light it, it doesnt all explode. The small flame is the 'pilot light,' and it is there as a source of ignition for the propane gas entering the heater.
What energy of coal is released as it burns?
chemical energy into heat energy
What energy transformation occurs when gasoline burns in an automobile?
fire energy
A car burns gasoline as you drive up a large mountain what energy transformation is the car performing?
Chemical energy to kinetic energy to gravitational potential energy
Does natural gas burn hotter than propane?
No, propane burns at 2500btu while natural gas burns at only 1012btu. Propane burns over 2 times hotter than natural gas.
What is the colour of flame while propane burns?
Propane has not a color.
When a candle burns what energy transformation takes place?
When a candle starts burning heat energy is transformed either by radiation or conduction or convention(in case of liquids).
is propane burns in air physical or chemical?
Chemical
Do you need to change the pilot orifice when changing from propane to natural gas?
Yes, Propane burns hotter.

Burning of wood what transformation of energy is it?
When wood burns, chemical energy is transformed into heat
What is one advantage of using propane as a fuel?
Propane burns without leaving behind any ashes, unlike wood or coal. It is therefore neater.
What happens when gas burns in a cooker?
Propane combines with oxygen (in the air) to form water and carbon dioxide. When not enough oxygen is available, carbon monoxide (or even soot, raw carbon) is formed instead of carbon dioxide.
