Good question...... Let take one chemical equation for an example. C+O2 ---- CO2 In this Carbon has Atomic Mass of 12 Ox-have 16 So substituting those values, we can rewrite eqn 12 kg of carbon+(16*2)kg of ox-----(12+32)kg of co2 Simplifying.... 12kg of C+32 kg og o2 ---- 44kg of co2 So o2 required for 1kg of Carbon is... 1kg of C+ 32/12 kg of o2 ----- 44/12 kg of co2. 1c+ 2.6kg of o2 ----- 3.6kg of co2 So 2.6 kg of o2 required for combustion of 1 kg carbon. Coming to your question We all know that atmosphere contains 23% of o2 by weight and 21% by volume. So... Weight of air is ------ 2.6 * (100/23) = 11.3 kg Volume of air is--------2.6 * (100/21) = 12.38m3.
Yes. Burning hydrogen gas in air produces water vapor.
burns faster in pure oxygen as the percentage of oxygen is less in air
Nichrome is not flammable.
oxygen
Oxygen is the gas in the air that keeps a fire burning. It helps combustion by reacting with the fuel source to produce heat and light.
Correct proportion of oxidant.
Ozone's proportion is very low in the atmosphere. It is a rare gas.
idea i no have
what is the substance formad when burning both hydrogen and ethanol in the air
Combustion consumes oxygen.
Yes. Burning hydrogen gas in air produces water vapor.
The burning of carbon - be it food in plants and animals or from burning fuel or from burning forests.
The discovery that oxygen is essential for burning was made by the English scientist Joseph Priestley in the 1770s. He conducted experiments where he found that a substance that he called "dephlogisticated air" (now known as oxygen) was required for candles to burn.
The required speed to flight in air is 280kmph.
Burning is the rapid Oxidation of a Compound. Therefore the Element Oxygen is required.
burning process does not occur due to absence of air.
Air is mixed with gas before burning to achieve the appropriate air-to-fuel ratio for combustion. The right ratio ensures complete combustion, which maximizes heat output and efficiency while minimizing emissions. Insufficient air can lead to incomplete combustion and the production of harmful byproducts.
