Burning of all materials involve oxygen.
No, sodium nitrate does not burn in an oxygen-free atmosphere because combustion requires oxygen to support the chemical reaction that produces heat and light. Without oxygen, there is no source for the combustion reaction to occur.
Chlorine and oxygen do not typically form an ionic compound. Chlorine tends to form covalent compounds, like chlorine gas (Cl2), while oxygen typically forms covalent compounds like oxygen gas (O2) or diatomic oxygen.
No, oxygen is more electronegative than chlorine. Oxygen has a higher electronegativity value on the periodic table (3.44) compared to chlorine (3.16). Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract electrons in a chemical bond.
Hydrogen, oxygen, and chlorine are chemical elements found on the periodic table. Hydrogen is the lightest element, oxygen is essential for sustaining life through respiration, and chlorine is a reactive nonmetal commonly used for disinfection purposes.
No color. When burning chlorine, the flame gains no additional color from the chlorine. Examples of this may be found by burning Aluminum chloride or Magnesium chloride, both of which burn colorless. This means that Chlorine contributes no color to the flame.
It can burn things in a similar manner to oxygen but I didn't think chlorine itself is flammable
True, fire must have oxygen to burn.
The rocket carries its own supply of oxygen with which to burn the fuel.
Not really. It will combine with oxygen or chlorine / fluorine, but poorly.
>>>MoonBecause there is no oxygen, fire needs air to burn.
NO!! (not to be harsh)
Yes. Chlorine could sustain such a reaction as well.
When coal is burned without oxygen, it undergoes a process called pyrolysis where it decomposes into volatile gases, tar, and char. This can produce useful byproducts such as charcoal and coal gas, which can be used in various industrial processes.
Fire is a chemical reaction between oxygen and some flammable substance. Without oxygen you are missing one of the ingredients.
No, gasoline requires oxygen to ignite and burn. Without oxygen, gasoline cannot undergo the combustion reaction necessary for an explosion.
Magnesium can burn in the absence of elemental oxygen, yes. This is because it is such a strong reducing agent that it can essentially steal oxygen from substances such as water and carbon dioxide.
Chloride itself is not a substance. It is the ion formed by the element chlorine. Chlorine can react with oxygen but in most of its reactions it does not burn but rather causes other substances to "burn" much in the manner that oxygen does.
