Yes, because kinetic energy is apart of the laws of physics, and can be applied anything that is in motion. Each molecule in the combustion process (that are in motion) are bound the laws of physics just as anything else in this world is. Therefore a flame must have kinetic energy, but in minuscule amounts.

What is the equation for the safety flame on a Bunsen burner?
There is no equation for a flame. You can try to write an equation for the reactions happening in the region we call the flame. I presume you mean when the air hole is closed and the flame is yellow. There is no one simple equation, as several reactions are going on, but this one accounts for the formation of the soot particles which give the flame its yellow colour:CH4 +O2 --> C + 2H2O
When the temperature of a substance decreases increases what happens?
The temperature of a substance increases as the mean random kinetic energy of its particles increases. This is because temperature of an object is directly proportional to the kinetic energy of its particles. Thus when the particles move faster as a whole, such as when the object is put near a flame, the object heats up.
What are the energy changes in a Bunsen burner?
The energy changes in a Bunsen burner involve the conversion of chemical energy in the fuel (such as natural gas or propane) into heat energy through combustion. This heat energy is then transferred to the surroundings as thermal energy when the flame is used for applications like heating or sterilization.
Did it take long for the flame to appear?
It took only a few seconds for the flame to appear once the ignition source was applied.
What energy source is used to start a candle burning?
The energy source that is used to start a candle burning is heat. When a flame or spark is applied to the wick, it ignites the wax in the candle, which then releases energy in the form of heat and light as it burns.
When you heat a pot over a flame what form of energy is added to the water?
Thermal to kinetic when it boils
What are the energy conversions of a floating lantern?
If the water in which it is floating is moving, then the kinetic energy (movement energy) of the water is causing the lantern to drift. At the same time the lantern's flame is produced from wax or oil, and this material is being changed from chemical energy (energy of composition) to light energy (the flame).
When you heat a pot of water over a flame what form of energy is added to the water why?
When you heat a pot of water over a flame, thermal energy is added to the water. This causes the water molecules to move faster, increasing their kinetic energy and raising the temperature of the water.
What is the energy conversion of lighter?
The original energy source is of course the Sun - lighter fuel stores ancient Sunlight energy in the form of chemical energy. When the lighter is used this chemical energy is converted into a flame which is both thermal energy (heat) and electromagnetic energy (light). The heat of the flame is also converted into kinetic energy as the hot gasses rise.
Does fossil fuels such as coal store chemical kinetic energy?
Fossil fuels like coal store potential energy in the form of chemical bonds. When they are burned, this potential energy is converted into heat energy (thermal energy) and released as a result of chemical reactions taking place. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, and while there may be kinetic energy involved in the burning process (e.g., moving particles in the flame), the primary form of energy stored in fossil fuels is potential energy.
Which phase or state of matter has the most kinetic energy?
The physical state, or phase, that has the greatest kinetic energy is gas. In a gas, the molecules are more free to move and they move more rapidly than in the other phases, and it is this motion that constitutes kinetic energy.
What is the flame colour of californium?
I suppose that the flame test was not applied to californium.

What forms of energy are present in firevood?
Hydrocarbon compounds, that will undergo a combustion reaction (with O2) that is exothermic (produces heat). It is all potential energy until the reaction is started (activated with some kinetic energy in the form of heat...a flame).
What is the difference between a type of energy and an energy resource?
well, a type of energy is kinetic, sound or gravitational potential energy, whereas an energy RESOURCE is where energy is from, like heat from a flame, the heat is the type of energy and the flame is the resource. hope this helped! answered by Sarah x
What is the difference between red and blue flame?
Difference is the excitation and ionization energy of atoms in the flame, likely fuel atoms, such as propane, and atmospheric atoms, such as oxygen, argon, hydrogen, nitrogen, etc. In the blue flame, the energy released by the atoms in the flame is more energetic. This is because blue light is of higher energy than red light. Blue light is lower wavelength, higher frequency, and higher energy than red light. The reverse is true in the red flame, the atoms are not releasing as much energy because red light is of lower energy. When an atom enters the flame, it absorbs energy thus exciting electrons to higher energy levels (higher than ground state). At this point, the excited atom can simply release this energy as visible or non visible light--and often relax by non-radiative means. Or the atom can lose an electron because the energy absorbed was so high and continue to excite other electrons to other levels and possibly remove a second or third electrons if the flame was energetic enough. In a flame, usually only first ionization and excitation occur. After these electrons are excited to whatever level, they have to release energy. Often, these atoms release this energy, if the energy level correlates, in the form of visible light. Other times, the light is released in non-visible portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. The light emitted from a flame is a measure of the energy available in the flame. With a given gas etc. distributions of atoms in excited states can be calculated, after spectra are collected, with the Boltzman equation and for ionization calculations one can use the Saha equation.
