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.
Most materials will catch fire at temperatures above 300°C (572°F), with some flammable materials igniting at lower temperatures. The exact temperature at which something will catch fire depends on the material and its flammability.

Flammability refers to how easily a substance can catch fire or ignite when exposed to heat, sparks, or flames. It is an important safety consideration in handling and storing chemicals, with flammable substances posing a higher fire risk than non-flammable ones. Flammability is typically indicated by a material's flash point, autoignition temperature, and flammable range.
because if you did it immediately, then the oil would catch on fire.
Cobustible substances can catch on fire but non-combustible substances are inflammabe
No, different substances have different ignition temperatures. This is because the ignition temperature is the specific temperature at which a substance will ignite and start burning. Factors such as chemical composition, molecular structure, and presence of impurities determine the ignition temperature of a substance.
Most materials will catch fire at temperatures above 300°C (572°F), with some flammable materials igniting at lower temperatures. The exact temperature at which something will catch fire depends on the material and its flammability.
Flammable Material
flammable means it can catch on fire. some substances that can catch on fire are... wood cloth hair(yuck) carpet
the substances which have very low ignition temperature and can easily catch fire with a flame are called inflammable substances.Examples are petrol,alcohol,L.P.G etc.
Combustible substance : Substances that burn easily or catch fire easily are called combustible substances. Paper, clothes, wood, LPG are all combustible substances. Without these substances, a fire cannot be started.
To a high enough temperature, yes.
lithium
Wood needs to reach its ignition temperature to catch fire. When heated only slightly, the temperature may not be high enough to cause ignition. Additionally, a lack of sufficient oxygen or fuel can also prevent wood from catching fire when heated a little.
Because of lower ignition temperature of the chemical applied on match stick.
No, sugar does not easily catch fire when lit with a flame. Sugar requires a much higher temperature to ignite compared to other flammable materials. It will decompose and caramelize when exposed to heat, but it will not burst into flames like some more flammable substances.
No. You can't light a penny on fire. If you get it hot enough you can melt the penny but it won't really be on fire.
