If you say 'oxygen gas supports combustion' are you talking about a chemical or physical reaction?

Combustion is a hemical reaction.


If more power is to be gained from this design what must also accompany the extra supply of oxygen to the combustion chamber?

To gain more power from the design with an increased supply of oxygen to the combustion chamber, it is essential to also supply a corresponding increase in fuel to maintain the proper air-fuel ratio for efficient combustion. Additionally, the combustion chamber must be capable of withstanding higher pressures and temperatures, which may require enhanced materials and cooling systems. Proper tuning of the ignition timing and exhaust systems may also be necessary to optimize performance and prevent engine knock.


The waste products of combustion leave the internal combustion engine through the?

The waste products of combustion leave the internal combustion engine through the exhaust valve.


What type of reaction releases energy and does not require initial energy to occur?

All reactions require an activation energy. Some appear not to because that energy is provided enough by their temperature. Thus, there is no reaction that does not require any initial energy to occur. A reaction that results in an overall release of energy is called an exothermic reaction.


What is a cooling combustion?

Cooling combustion refers to a combustion process where heat is removed from the combustion zone to lower the temperature. This can be achieved through the injection of a coolant or by designing the combustion chamber in a way that dissipates heat more efficiently. Cooling combustion can help reduce emissions of pollutants and increase fuel efficiency in engines.

Does a refrigerator require a combustion?

No. Evaporation and condensation is enough.


Does combustion require oxygen?

yes this is because it is the only gas that supports burning. yes


What is the relationship between the heat of combustion and the stability of a substance?

The heat of combustion is a measure of how much energy is released when a substance burns. Generally, substances with higher heat of combustion are more stable because they require more energy to break their bonds and ignite.

Does a fire pit require air holes for proper ventilation and combustion?

Yes, a fire pit requires air holes for proper ventilation and combustion to ensure the fire burns efficiently and safely.


What is the relationship between the heat of combustion and the stability of a chemical compound?

The heat of combustion is a measure of the energy released when a compound burns. Generally, more stable compounds have lower heats of combustion because they require less energy to break their bonds. Therefore, there is an inverse relationship between the heat of combustion and the stability of a chemical compound.


What is combustion burning?

Combustion or burning is the chemical reaction of a substance in the presence of oxygen. This can be understood with a simple example. Fire is not enough to burn a paper, it also require oxygen in air. During burning or combustion, heat energy is generated and physical and chemical properties of substance are changed.


What is the gas in the atmosphere that fires require to burn?

Oxygen is the gas in the atmosphere that fires require to burn. It helps in the combustion process by reacting with the fuel source, releasing heat and light in the process.


What about combustion reaction makes them different from either synthesis or decomposition reaction?

The short answer is combustion reactions are a subset of synthesis reactions that require one of the reactants to be oxygen. Common combustion of organic molecules results in the formation of CO2 . However, it is not required that combustion be limited to organic molecules. They are different from decomposition reactions in the same way synthesis is the opposite of decomposition.


What is ch4 plus o2co2 plus 2h2o?

Please learn to write chemical equations properly. They require the use of capital letters.CH4 + O2 ==> CO2 + 2H2O is a COMBUSTION REACTION. It shows the combustion of methane to form carbon dioxide and water.


Do fuels need carbon dioxide to burn?

No. CO2 is a product of combustion. If the concept that LeChatelier proposed is used, the CO2 actually gets in the way of the combustion reaction (burning).
