What do you have to do to release the energy of a fuel?
You have to produce some kind of reaction to make the fuel change state. This could be a nuclear reaction, or in the case of combustible fossil fuels it is a chemical reaction with oxygen
What is the chemical term for burning a fuel?
The scientific term for burning to death is Immolation
Why fire needs oxygen?
A fire is nothing but a very fast chemical reaction where oxygen (or another oxidizer) combines chemically with the fuel to form an ash. If there is no oxygen, the chemical reaction cannot happen, so there is no fire.
What are useful chemical reactions?
the preparation of salt is a usefull chemical reaction.Also the amonia making.Theese two things are very needfull for men.We should not dislike chemistry,we want to love it and we want to follow the ways of green chemistry
Explain what is combustion?
Did you mean combustion? Combustion is the chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant which will produce heat. Ex: a camp-fire is a combustion, the gas being burned in the engine of your car is also.
Is burning of fuel in a cutting torch a chemical reaction?
Yes, burning of fuel is always a chemical reaction.
Would burning diesel fuel be a chemical change?
Yes, chemical reaction.
Cars and motorcycle engines are controlled by what chemical reaction?
This is the burning of the fuel.
Is wood fire burning a chemical reaction?
Yes. It is a combustion reaction in which an organic fuel, in this case wood, produces carbon dioxide and water, and a great deal of heat.
What chemical reaction occurs in your own home?
Examples: cooking, washing, burning a fuel.
The process of burning a fuel to change chemical energy into thermal energy is called?
When a fuel is burned, it is a combustion reaction. This reaction breaks apart chemical bonds and releases the energy stored in them.
How is starting a car a chemical reaction?
Because fuel is burned. Burning breaks down the chemical bonds of the fuel releasing some elements and making other chemical bonds.
Is composite oxides are mixed oxide?
burning of fuel is a chemical reaction which makes the fuel to combine with oxygen thus forming an oxide
Is the burning of fuel in a car a chemical or physical change?
It would be a chemical change because it is burning. Like a newspaper on fire.
What evidence is there that a chemical reaction has occurred in an automobile?
Yes there is a chemial reaction,when gas is compressed by piston temperature increases so it cathes the fire.
Is oxygen necessary for burning?
Combustion (or burning) is the reaction between a fuel and any oxidant. So by definition burning requires oxygem, As to why oxygen supports burning because it is very reactive and when any when any chemical is oxidiesed it is an exothermic reaction
Is combustion a physio-chemical reaction?
Combustion or burning is the sequence of exothermic chemical reactions between a fuel and an oxidant accompanied by the production of heat and conversion of chemical species.
