Butane burns at no less than 450 Celsius.
But it might actually be higher.
See related link.
the hotter something is the more the molecules in it bounce around. This bouncing around makes it so that molecules are more spread out in hotter air then colder air so the hotter air is less dense and the less dense air rises above the colder more dense air.
Answer:
Assuming good mixing and proper flow conditions a butane/air flame (like a lighter) can reach temperature of 1,977o C
Lighter fluid burns at a temperature of around 1,800 to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit. This high temperature makes it effective for quickly igniting charcoal or wood in a barbecue grill. It is important to handle lighter fluid with caution and follow safety instructions to prevent accidents.
At least 490F. That is the ignition temperature of most petroleum based fuels including lighter fluid. The flame in order to continue burning must be at least this hot. The actual temperature is dependent upon the rate of firing, essentially how fast the fuel is delivered to be burned, the surface area of combustion and the amount of air supplied to produce an efficient smoke free flame. A cigarette lighter burning liquid lighter fluid will get to slightly over 500F while a charcoal grill using lighter fluid for ignition of the charcoal might reach as high as 800F or more until the fuel is exhausted and the charcoal begins to burn. Liquid Butane lighters, usually disposables burns hotter about 850F, as it is gaseous butane (Ignition temperature 826F) and not liquid petroleum.
The average temperature of your typical candle flame is around 1000 deg C, the hottest part (the blue region) being about 1400 degrees C.
A butane flame in air has a temperature of 1970 C. A lighter fluid flame has temperature of 2537 C

What happens when you mix ammonia and lighter fluid?
Mixing ammonia and lighter fluid can create a dangerous chemical reaction that can produce toxic fumes, cause a fire, or even lead to an explosion. It is important to never mix these two substances together.
Why would a large burn area predisposes to decreased blood pressure because?
A large burn area predisposes to decreased blood pressure because the damaged skin leads to fluid loss and shifts of fluid from the blood vessels into the surrounding tissues. This loss of fluid reduces the volume of blood in circulation, leading to hypovolemia and subsequent decreased blood pressure. Additionally, the release of inflammatory mediators in response to the burn injury can also contribute to vasodilation and further drop in blood pressure.
What sets convection currents into motion?
Convection currents are set into motion by temperature differences in a fluid or gas. When one part of the fluid is heated, it becomes less dense and rises, while the cooler, denser fluid sinks, creating a circular motion. This process is responsible for phenomena like ocean currents and atmospheric circulation.
How many watt is a butane lighter?
The highest temperature a butane lighter reaches is the "flash point", which is when the spark occurs to begin the flame.The flash point can reach temperatures of up to 420oC which is about 788oF.
What is the perfect temperature for hot cocoa Celsius?
The perfect temperature for hot cocoa is typically between 55-60 degrees Celsius. This temperature allows the cocoa to be hot enough to be comforting and soothing without being too hot to burn your mouth.
Cannot find my dad's lighter fluid to make handheld fireballs are there any substitutes?
I do not believe so. The reason why you can only use lighter fluid is because it does not burn very hot. There may be a substitute, but I do not know of any.
What is a substitute for lighter fluid for a BBQ?
I have used the gel from a can of Sterno. Just smear blobs intermittently on your pile of coals and light. It seems to burn cleaner and is not as "explosive" as lighter fluid.
Can you use zippo lighter fluid for charcoal fluid?
Absolutely not, you should only use Zippo Lighter fluid. If you're in a pinch, Ronson lighter fluid works too.
What should you put on lighter fluid spill?
lihter fluid is safe to drink but you would urinate and it would burn don't drink it at all
What is the difference between zippo fluid and butane?
Butane lighters burn hotter but use up fuel fast compared to regular lighter fluid lighters which do not burn as hot but do not use up fuel as fast.**The answer is found in chemistry. Butane is a specific chemical, ie. C4H10; an alkane with four carbons and ten hydrogens. Lighter fluid is not so specific in its contents - it is generally defined as a highly combustible (thus high octane) hydrocarbon; Naptha.
Is ronston lighter fluid naptha based lighter fluid?
Yes , as is Zippo lighter fluid .
What can be used as lighter fluid?
Lighter Fluid
Does frozen gas burn?
This is dangerous and will damage the lighter. Lighter fluid is made of naptha, the traditional dry cleaning fluid. It is highly flammable, but is not a gasoline product. The two are made by different processes. Fill your lighter with the reccommended product to prolong the life of the lighter.
How do you burn a spliff?
with a lighter. with a lighter. with a flame
What alternate fules can you use in a zippo?
any lighter fluid, except for bic lighter fluid
Can WD-40 be used to refill a Zippo lighter?
No, while it is a combustible product, it lacks the volitility of other products. It actually CAN be used, and will light and burn pretty nicely, BUT your cigarettes will taste funny! Someone 'borrowed' some fluid from me, not noticing I had marked the can "WD-40" with a marker. He had to get new cotton and a new wick for his lighter!
How to refill a metal flip lighter with lighter fluid?
Slide the lighter body out of the lighter case, by pulling on the wick cage. With the lighter body upside down squirt lighter fluid into the fiber packing in the lighter until saturated. Reassemble the lighter body into the lighter case. Let excess lighter fluid evaporate before using the lighter.
