How many percent of oxygen level to ignite the fire?
16.3%
Hydrocarbon and oxygen equals?
Nothing unless you have something to ignite the fuel. The oxygen makes a fire when combine with an ignition.* The fuel keeps a fire going, when the fuel discinigrates, then there is no more fire. *Usually an ignition is a spark.
What happens when fire mixes with hydrogen?
If there is enough oxygen, the hydrogen will ignite and burn rapidly, possible leading to an explosion.
What other product will you get from burning sugar pure carbon and?
when burning sugar, many things could happen, when using a match or something, usually the sugar separates into carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen, the hydrogen and oxygen usually ignite and burn, this heat usually heats up the sugar more and makes more hydrogen and oxygen, which then also burns. when the H and O burn, they give off H2O (water) and the carbon remains, one alternative to what could happen, is that the carbon could react with oxygen and make CO2 (carbon dioxide) and the hydrogen and oxygen ignite and produce the H2O.
How is carbon dioxide able to control a fire?
Carbon Dioxide [CO2] controls, and can extinguish, a fire due to the fact that the addition of CO2 to the air, results in reducing the relative percentage of Oxygen [O2] to a concentration below that necessary for combustion ["burning"] to occur.

How do hydrocarbons ignite?
Hydrocarbons react with oxygen; the products are water and carbon dioxide.
How does oxygen distribute fire?
Oxygen does not distribute fire. Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and some flammable substance. Fire cannot burn without oxygen, and the more oxygen there is, the hotter and faster a fire will burn. More oxygen also makes it easier for materials to ignite.

Could oxygen start a fire?
Not on its own. To have a fire you need three ingredients: fuel, oxygen, and heat. Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and some flammable fuel. The heat is needed to ignite and sustain the reaction. Our atmosphere is 21% oxygen, which makes fire possible here. Oxygen tanks, which contain pure oxygen, are a fire hazard because higher concentrations of oxygen make it easier for flammable materials to ignite and allow a fire to burn hotter and spread faster.
Does carbon dioxide react same like hydrogen to a fire?
No. Hydrogen will easily ignite if it comes in contact if fire. Carbon dioxide is not flammable at all and can even be used to put out a fire.
Why does a fire in a fireplace burn more briskly on a windy day?
Fire is the reaction of wood with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, carbon, hydrogen, and energy. More oxygen equals more energy/ more wind equals more fire. Too much wind will blow out the fire because wood needs to be a certain temperature to ignite and excess wind will carry away the hot air that keeps the fire going.
How carbon dioxide control fire?
3 elements are needed for a fire: fuel, oxygen (air), and heat. The carbon dioxide is used to displace the oxygen being used in a fire. Since fire has no more oxygen available because it is replaced by the carbon dioxide, the fire will go out.
What do you need for a burning to occur?
Fuel, Oxygen and a spark to ignite the flame. Use the Fire triangle.
Do all fires produce carbon monoxide?
It depends on how much oxygen there is in the area of where is the fire, If the fire has enough or too much oxygen, there is no carbon monoxide, if there is any lack of oxygen, carbon monoxide is produced.
The key elements for a fire?
Fuel, Oxygen and Heat Fuel, Oxygen and Heat Fuel, Oxygen and Heat
What chemical property is shown when hydrogen maeks a slpint ignite?
I think you mean oxygen. However, hydrogen itself might ignite if heated enough by the splint. The chemical property is, anyway, either carbon or hydrogen's affinity with oxygen.
