i think this has something to do with the ratio of C/O as compared to that of CO2 where the ratio of C/O is less. a sooty flame is an indicator of a lot of C

What color flame test does selenium nitrate give?
Blue
Give some examples of toxic gases?
Methylmercaptan, carbon disulfide, hydrogen sulfide Sulfur figures in many "stinks"
What are the product of completely combustion of alkene?
Complete oxidation of alkanes by oxygen yeilds carbon dioxide and water. Alkanes oxidation by O2, (CxH2x+2) + O2 = x CO2 + x+1 H2O. With Halogens it would be CyH2y+2 + X2 = CyX2y+2 + (y+2) HX. Carbon Carbon bonds often do not break in halogen oxidation. "often"
What color is the flame when you burn copper II chloride?
A: If you put a piece of copper wire on any type of flame (most preferably cooking flames), then you would observe that they produce a green color in the flame. Sometimes, it might give youa blue tinge but if it doesn't, it doesn't mean that there's something wrong with the copper you're using.
A flame can move grow larger and give off heat is a flame alive?
No it is not a live, cuz the flame do not have cells
Will a candle set off a carbon monoxide detector?
No, because candles do not give off Carbon Monoxide.
What color does sugar produce you n a flame test?
Flame of itself is yellow/white. This is white hot carbon particles. Carbon, per se, does not form ions and so cannot give a flame test colour.
What kind of gas does a car give out?
CO, (or Carbon Monoxide)
What plastic can give off carbon monoxide when burned?
All plastics give of carbon monoxide when burned, the amount of carbon monoxide depends on what type of plastic is being burned, so don't burn plastic cause too much carbon monoxide is bad for all life on earth and the ozone! :)
What do fossil fuels give out when they are burnt?
Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide to name but a couple of gasses.
Why do old cars give more carbon monoxide?
Old cars give off more carbon dioxide because they do not have catalytic converters. Catalytic converters act as catalysts, converting dangerous substances such carbon monoxide into harmless compounds.
Why is carbon dioxide not good reducing agent as carbon monoxide?
The carbon atom in carbon dioxide has an oxidation state of 4+ (It's missing 4 electrons.) The carbon atom in carbon monoxide has an oxidation state of 2+ (It's only missing two electrons.) A reducing agent is something that will give electrons to another substance. Carbon dioxide has less electrons to give than carbon monoxide, making it not as good of a reducing agent.
What gases do aeroplanes give off?
Carbon Monoxide depending on the type of fuel.
Do only s-block elements give flame test?
No, many elements outside the s-block will also give a flame test.Here are a few examples.Some d-block elements include:Copper (blue-green flame)Manganese (yellowish green flame)Zinc (blue-green flame)Some p-block elements include:Lead (blue flame)Thallium (green flame)Selenium (azure flame)
What color flame test does selenium nitrate give?
Blue
What type of deadly gas do combustible engines give off?
Carbon monoxide (CO), also called carbonic oxide, is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas which is lighter than air. It is highly toxic to humans and animals in higher quantities, although it is also produced in normal animal metabolism in low quantities, and is thought to have some normal biological functions.It consists of one carbon atom and one oxygen atom, connected by a covalent double bond and a dative covalent bond. It is the simplest oxocarbon, and is an anhydride of formic acid. In coordination complexes the carbon monoxide ligand is called carbonyl.Carbon monoxide is produced from the partial oxidation of carbon-containing compounds; it forms when there is not enough oxygen to produce carbon dioxide (CO2), such as when operating a stove or an internal combustion engine in an enclosed space. Carbon monoxide burns with a blue flame, producing carbon dioxide.[1]
What is ethanol family name and characteristics?
Ethanol is from Alcohol family. They are very flammable, give blue flame, volatile, nearly neutral, and contain only carbon, hydrogen and oxgen.
