Where does this energy come from once the hydrocarbons release a lot of energy when ignited?

This is the heat of combustion.


Why do chemical reactions with hydrocarbons release a large amount of energy?

It is not obligatory; you think probable to combustion.


How can saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons be differentiated on the basis of combustion?

Saturated hydrocarbons sometimes burn with smoky flame upon combustion while unsaturated hydrocarbons always burn with non-smoky or blue flame. This is on account of the reason that for the same number of carbon atoms in their molecular formula, saturated hydrocarbons have more number of hydrogen atoms as compared to unsaturated hydrocarbons.


Is hydrocarbons involved in green house effect?

no. hydrocarbons make up crude oil and in combustion they are burnt to make CO2


Hydrocarbons may be emitted as a result of burning fuels because of?

imcomplete combustion


How does combustion differentiate between saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons?

The primary difference is that an unsaturated hydrocarbon contains a C=C double bond allowing it to undergo addition reactions. Saturated hydrocarbons contain only C-C single bonds so only substitution and elimination can occur. The difference can be seen experimentally as an unsaturated hydrocarbon (eg ethene) will decolourise bromine water.


What is made when hydrocarbons are burnt?

Burning of hydrocarbons release water and carbon dioxide.


Can carbon dioxide be man made?

yes. by the combustion of carbon containing hydrocarbons or fuels or wood etc


What do hydrocarbons form when they burn?

When Hydrocarbons burn, they usually form Carbon Dioxide and Water.


What two products are a result of incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons?

Soot (carbon) and carbon monoxide - as opposed to full combustion which results in water and carbon dioxide


Is carbon monoxide made from a complete combustion?

Carbon monoxide is not the result of a complete combustion.Carbon monoxide is made when hydrocarbons are burnt in low amount of oxygen. That means when partial combustion is happened. Carbon monoxide is harmful to the animals.


When hydrocarbons burn completely in an excess of oxygen the products are?

Carbon dioxide and water are the main products when hydrocarbons burn completely in an excess of oxygen. This process generally occurs in engines or other combustion systems where the fuel is completely oxidized to release energy.
