What is the difference between zippo fluid and butane?
Butane lighters burn hotter but use up fuel fast compared to regular lighter fluid lighters which do not burn as hot but do not use up fuel as fast.**The answer is found in chemistry. Butane is a specific chemical, ie. C4H10; an alkane with four carbons and ten hydrogens. Lighter fluid is not so specific in its contents - it is generally defined as a highly combustible (thus high octane) hydrocarbon; Naptha.
Where is butane found in periodic table?
Walmart, most commonly found in or around the aisle where the cigarettes are sold.
Can you use butane lighter fluid in Zippos?
Butane will only stay a liquid under pressure. NORMAL lighters keep it in a sealed container so it only evaporates when the trigger is pressed. Zippo lighters are NOT sealed and even if they had a way to inject butane, it would all flow out the top. Zippos require a fuel that is a liquid at room temp and evaporates a little at a time so the sparks will ignite the gas. Zippo does produce a special butane lighter, however.
Butane gas in dunhill lighter?
yes
What Can you fill a butane lighter with?
you can fill a butane lighter with lot's of things but you only want to use butane or (only if you have an adjustable lighter) propane. some of my freinds tried Ethane and they could either get it to burn a lighter up or it wouldn't light so it's hard to balance if you use that. I PLAY WITH FIRE :)
What is in the fluid of a lighter?
Butane.
Is lighter fluid charged positive?
No. Lighter fluid is usually butane, a flammable substance known as a hydrocarbon with chemical formula C4H10. A spark ignites the butane, allowing the lighter to function.
What has a greater density than water?
Butane or lighter fluid
Where do you get lighter fuel?
In the US, most major retailers carry this item, including grocery stores and Walmart and Target. All specialty tobacco shops would also carry lighter fluid and butane gas.

What type of lighter fluid do you use for torch lighters?
Butane, but I know there's a better one though. Butane is like the standard, while you could buy higher end fuels.
How much fluid is in a BIC lighter?
Lighter fluid ...its not often that the trivial answer is the right one. Good work. Lighter fluid ...its not often that the trivial answer is the right one. Good work.
Can you use normal fluid in a Zippo lighter?
Use can use any naptha lighter fluid in a Zippo. This may not be what you would identify as "normal," however; the more modern Bic lighter and many others use butane. Butane absolutely won't work in a Zippo. I'm not sure what would happen, but it could be anywhere from not working at all to a fiery explosion.
What happens when you mix ammonia and lighter fluid?
What most people call "ammonia" is actually a solution of what chemists call ammonia in water. If you mix household ammonia with lighter fluid, they won't mix. Lighter fluid is probably (mostly) butane, which is not exactly miscible with water. I'm not actually positive whether it's miscible with "real" ammonia or not in the liquid state, but I doubt it; ammonia is polar and butane is not.
Can you put zippo lighter fluid in a jet lighter?
I wouldn't recommend it because the lighter fluid is just a liquid and the normal jet lighter fuel is a compressed gas. Having the gas compressed forces the gas out with the perfect amount of pressure. If you just put a liquid in it, it will just sit there and not do anything; maybe if you pressurize it and then make it into a fine mist when it comes out then it might work, but it wouldn't be too practical because it would be cheaper to buy butane than mod your lighter.

What is used to refill a lighter?
Butane.
