When the carbon dioxide gas was poured over the flame why was the flame extinguished?

Carbon dioxide is a heavy gas that displaces oxygen, which is necessary for a flame to burn. By pouring carbon dioxide over the flame, the oxygen around the flame is depleted, causing the flame to be extinguished.


How can a student change a luminowhat would need to be done to a Bunsen in order to change a luminous yellow flame into a non luminous blue flameus yellow flame into a non luminous blue flame?

A blue flame contains lots of oxygen compared to the yellow flame. So the only thing you should do is decrease the oxygen supply


Why do different substances catch fire at different temperature?

It basically depends upon the saturation of hydrocarbons.Alkanes generally burn in air with a blue flame because %age of carbon is low which gets oxidised completely by the oxygen as copare to unsaturated hydrocarbons,but production of flame depends upon availability of oxygen too, in secant concentration of oxygen sooty flame or no any flame will be observed and substance at that time will produce energy slowly with sooty flame or just smoke only.


What is found in the energy levels around the nucleus?

electrons occupy sublevels in the order of increasing energy .


Why does kerosene burn with a blue flame in wick stove but produces a yellow flame when burnt in a lamp?

Generally, the more oxygen supplied to a flame, the hotter and bluer the flame is.Wick stoves need to be hot, so they are designed to allow lots of oxygen to get to the flame, which also makes it bluer.Lamps just need to be bright, so the oxygen input is regulated by valves in order to achieve a more yellow, cooler flame.

Is a black flame possible?

No. But a good question nonetheless. There are flames that are clear such as a regular oxy-hydrogen (and very dangerous as a consequence!). Usually we see a flame from the small incandescent particles or excited molecules within it. In order for a flame to be black it would have to absorb light instead of emit light. Doesn't seem possible.


How is fabric flame retardant?

flame needs oxygen in order to keep on burning. fabric might cut that source of oxygen and the fire might go out, but there is a limit to how much flame a fabric can put out I think...

What does a backfire flame arrestor prevent?

Internal combustion engines can backfire. In order to prevent flames from the backfire causing a fire on board, an approved backfire flame arrestor must be attached to the air intake with a flame tight connection.
