Not on its own. It needs a source of ignition.

Can gasoline explode under certain conditions?

Yes, gasoline can explode under certain conditions such as when it is exposed to a spark or flame in the presence of oxygen. This can happen if there is a leak or spill of gasoline in a confined space.


Is it possible to have an explosion without oxygen?

Sure, e.g., liquid nitrogen will explode at room temperature if kept confined in a container such as a capped bottle.


What happens to propane when it is all burnt?

when you burn propane to complete combustion you will get a mixture of carbon dioxide and water vapor.


Why do carrots explode in the microwave?

The same with beans, they start to expand in too much heat and eventually explode.


Does a propane tank have oxygen in it?

No, a propane tank contains propane gas, not oxygen. Propane is a hydrocarbon gas that is commonly used as a fuel source for heating and cooking.


How many oxygen atoms are in propane?

0, there are no oxygen atoms in PROPANE (C3H8 or CH3CH2CH3)


Can Hydrogen explode on its own?

Hydrogen can explode when mixed with oxygen in the presence of an ignition source. This can happen in environments where hydrogen and oxygen are present in the correct proportions, such as in a confined space. It is important to handle hydrogen safely to prevent such explosions.


How many grams of oxygen are required to burn 100 gram of propane?

For every 1 mole of propane burned, 5 moles of oxygen are required. This means that 44 grams of propane requires 160 grams of oxygen to burn completely. Therefore, 100 grams of propane would require (100 grams propane * 160 grams oxygen / 44 grams propane) = 363.64 grams of oxygen to burn completely.


How hot does a torch burn at?

With the correct mixture of Acetylene and Oxygen the flame can reach 5,000F or more. Other fuels (Propane etc.) do not create temperatures this high.


What gas is used in cylinders that blow out fire?

Small hand torches are typically propane. Large professional welding torches use a mixture of oxygen and acetylene.


How many moles of oxygen will be produced from the complete combustion of 4 moles of propane?

The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of propane is: C3H8 + 5 O2 -> 3 CO2 + 4 H2O. This means that 5 moles of oxygen are required to completely combust 1 mole of propane. Therefore, 20 moles of oxygen would be produced from the complete combustion of 4 moles of propane.


Compare the exposive power of TNT against that of propane gas?

Not possible as the explosive force of propane will depend on what it is mixed with (air or oxygen or other oxidiser), the ratio propane to oxidising agent, and pressure. In very many cases, propane will not explode when ignited.
