Why does gasoline conduct electricity?
In my knowledge, any liquid will conduct electricity. It was one of my first childhood lessons. Haha Fuel (gasoline) is made of hydrocarbons such as isooctane. Hydrocarbons itself has no free electrons, nor charges, so it is not conductive.
What is a class 1 division 1 area?
Class 1 Division 1 location is designated as an area where flammable volatile liquids or liquefied flammable gases are transferred from one container to another. An example of this would be at a gas station when you put gasoline into your vehicle.The area around the pumps is class 1 div. 1.
What machine turns a generator to make electricity?
Anything, including a person or a machine, that can turn a generator will cause the generator to make electricity. Most commonly generators are turned by water turbines, wind turbines, gasoline or petrol engines, diesel engines or steam engines.
The M157 smoke generator set uses what kind of smoke generator?
gasoline
If it is the current that causes the damage why do dangerous places have signs warning you of the high voltage?
True, current causes the damage. But current cannot flow unless there is voltage present to push it. Imagine a live, exposed wire sticking out of a wall. It has voltage, but that's all. No current flows until the circuit is completed by something. That something can be you! At the instant you touch the wire, current flows from the wire, through you, and into the ground. If the current is high enough, it can injure or even kill you. The higher the voltage, the more current will flow once you touch the wire. A sign warning of high current would be inaccurate, because before you touch the wire, the current is zero. And low voltages cause very little current to flow through a human body under normal conditions. So, high voltage does indeed pose a potential threat, and thus warrants a warning. It's like the flammable warning on a can of gasoline. Right now, it just sits there. It is not hot, there is no flame. Yet. But we both would agree it has the potential to burn us to a crisp under the right conditions. Gasoline is not what hurts you. The flame it produces is what does the damage, yet we still put the warning on the gasoline. Voltage is like that. It's the current (flame) that does the damage, but it comes from the voltage (gasoline), so that's what we warn of.
Why are the tires for trucks carrying gasoline and other flammable fluids manufactured to be electrically conducting?
to keep truck grounded on uninsulated roads
Is hydrogen more flammable than gasoline?
Yes, hydrogen is more flammable than gasoline.
What is a sentence with the word gasoline in it?
Gasoline is very flammable.
Why is fueling a car while it is running not recommended?
Gasoline fumes are flammable. A running car generates heat and electricity and is more likely to be an ignition source.
How flammable is diesel mixed with gasoline?
Diesel fuel itself will burn but you really can't call it flammable. When you add gasoline to it, the flammability greatly increases with the amount of gasoline you add.
Are liquids flammable?
Not all liquids are flammable. Some liquids that are flammable are gasoline, alcohol, oil. Liquids like water are not flammable.
Why do cars work with gasoline and not water?

Did gasoline is flammable?
yes gasoline is flammable. thats why if you have a car accident and you are still in the car and it chucks into the pumps then your car will ghet on fire. hope this helps i like squishy noses
What is the most flammable out of gas and diesel?
Gasoline is the most flammable between gas and diesel due to its lower flash point and vaporization rate. Diesel is less flammable because it requires higher temperatures to ignite compared to gasoline.
Why does gasoline ignite?
Gasoline ignites because gasoline is flammable. (simple answer) A more detailed answer would be. Gasoline produces flammable vapors at a much lower temperature than almost any other 'common' chemical. It is the vapors that ignite rather than the chemical itself. Also Gasoline vapors are heavier than air. Any 'Flammable' chemical will ignite in the presence of an open flame or spark if there are sufficient fumes.
