Why does snow turn black when burned?

Answer 1

If your snow burns, I have no idea why it turns black, because it wasn't what I would call snow in the first place.

Burning other things near snow may result in black soot deposits on the snow. Perhaps that's what you meant.

Answer 2

Not all things turn black when heated, but living things (or things that have once lived) normally do. That is because such so-called organic materials contain a large amount of carbon. Heat expells much of the amount of other elements that have formed chemical bonds in the materials, leaving the carbon behind. Carbon in this form is black.

Answer 3

When snow is burned, the black residue produced is likely from particles in the environment, such as soot or dirt, that mix with the melted snow and create a darker color as they burn. It is not the snow itself turning black, but rather the impurities that are present.

Answer 4

It is from the carbon emited from the flame

Answer 5

They don't always go black sometimes they go grey to white. This is because of the unburned carbon.

Answer 6

Bread turns black when burned because of its carbon content. Carbon mixes with oxygen as a fuel, which then leaves a black residue.

Answer 7

Because the fire has chemicals,those chemicals turn the wood black since the chemicals are black but you cant see because of the heat

Answer 8

because they turn into ashes and ashes turn black from the burning fire
