The striking surface is composed of typically 25% powdered glass, 50% red phosphorus, 5% neutralizer, 4% carbon black and 16% binder; and the match head is typically composed of 45-55% potassium chlorate, with a little sulfur and starch, a neutralizer (ZnO or CaCO3), 20-40% of siliceous filler, diatomite and glue.[9] Some heads contain antimony(III) sulfide so they burn more vigorously. Safety matches ignite due to the extreme reactivity of phosphorus with the potassium chlorate in the match head. When the match is struck the phosphorus and chlorate mix in a small amount forming something similar to the explosive Armstrong's mixture which ignites due to the friction.
What else can I help you with?
What are the parts of a match stick?
A match contain a stick (from wood or paper) and a head with the active components.
When a mixture is created the components of the mixture their individual identities and properties?
When a mixture is created the components of the mixture __________ their individual identities and properties.
Why is separation done in water?
- To obtain the useful components from a mixture.- To remove the unwanted components from a mixture. - To separate 2 or more useful components from a mixture.
How can i make a match stick burn without rubing it?
You can light a match stick using another match stick, a lighter, or a candle. Simply expose the match head to the flame to ignite it.
What is the difference between homogeneous and heterogeneous?
A homogeneous mixture is one in which all components are uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. In a heterogeneous mixture the components are not evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
What are the parts of a match stick?
A match contain a stick (from wood or paper) and a head with the active components.
What happens when the components of a mixture are uniformly intermingled?
When the components of a mixture are uniformly intermingled, it is a homogeneous mixture.
When a mixture is created the components of the mixture their individual identities and properties?
When a mixture is created the components of the mixture __________ their individual identities and properties.
What is the top of a match called?
The top of a match is called the "match head." It is typically made of a mixture of chemicals that ignite when struck against a rough surface. The match head is designed to produce a flame that can be sustained long enough for the stick itself to catch fire.
What ways can components of a mixture can be separated?
The components of a mixture can be separated by filtration and distillation.
Why is it that the components of a mixture can be separated into the origanal substance?
The meaning is that the components can be separated from the mixture.

A mixture that has the same proportion of components throughout is called?
A suspension has evenly dispersed components.
What is a match?
A match is a formal contest in which two or more persons or teams compete. It's also a wooden stick topped with a sulphuric mixture used to create fire. And it is an indication two things fit together. If those things fit, they are said to match.
