How carbon dioxide burn?
Carbon dioxide cannot burn.
Do fuels need carbon dioxide to burn?
No, fuels do not need carbon dioxide to burn. They require oxygen to undergo combustion, which then produces carbon dioxide as a byproduct along with water vapor and heat.
What sort of fire is a carbon dioxide fire?
Carbon dioxide does not burn.
What is formed when you burn carbon?
carbon dioxide
Does carbon dioxide burn with a pop?
No, carbon dioxide is non-flammable and does not burn. When carbon dioxide is exposed to a flame, it will not react or produce a popping sound.
What gas is given off when you burn ethanol?
When ethanol is burned, it gives off carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O) as the main products.
Why would carbon dioxide not put out a magnesium fire?
Carbon dioxide is not effective at putting out magnesium fires because magnesium reacts with carbon dioxide to form magnesium oxide and carbon. This reaction is exothermic, meaning it releases energy in the form of heat, which can further fuel the fire. Water or a Class D fire extinguisher should be used to extinguish a magnesium fire.
Does fire need carbon dioxide to burn?
No, fire requires oxygen to burn, not carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of combustion when a material burns in the presence of oxygen.
Is carbon dioxide needed to burn fuels?
No
What is one of the gasses released when fossil fuels burn 2 words?
Carbon dioxide.
If you burn plants where does the carbon primarily go to?
Into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
How does a liquid carbon dioxide fire extinguisher work?
When the discharge valve is opened, the CO2 is forced out of the tank by pressure, and changes to CO2 gas. This is a heavy gas that will not burn, and blocks the fire from getting oxygen.
