Combustion Flashcards
(22 cards)
What are the types of Chemical reactions?
Combustion, Synthesis, decomposition, single replacement and double replacement
What is single replacement?
One element replaces another element in compound
What is double replacement?
A positive ion of element replaces another positive ion
What is synthesis?
Creating a complex productw
What is combustion
Substance reacts with oxygen and heat is created (exothermic)
What are some examples of fuels?
Fossil fuel, solid fuel
What are some combustion reactions?
Heating, oxidation, cooking with gas stove, intenal combustion engine of car, cellular respiration, burnt wax on a candle, petrol of car burning
When does complete combustion occur?
Fuel reacts when there is lots of oxygen available
Which combustion has the yellow flame?
incomplete combustion
What is incomplete combustion?
not enough oxygen to create carbon dioxide
Which combustion reaction has only partial oxidation?
Incomplete combustion
What does complete combustion create?
Carbon dioxide, and global warming because of trapped heat
Which combustion has high energy state?
Complete combustion
What does complete combustion produce?
CO and water
What does incomplete combustion produce as byproducts?
Carbon monoxide and carbon dust and water
Which combustion has air pollutant as an impact?
Incomplete combustion
What do neutralization reactions contains?
Contain hydrogen ions (acid)
What is released in a combustion reaction.
heat and light.
What effect can combustion reactions have on the environment?
They can contribute to climate change and produce air pollutants.
How are combustion and respiration similar?
Both involve oxidation and produce carbon dioxide and water as byproducts.
What is neutralization?
the type, and how it occurs
It is a type of double replacement where an acid and a base react, canceling each other out and creating a neutral solution, typically water and a salt.
What is the typical complete combustion reaction?
A hydrocarbon and oxygen react to produce carbon dioxide and water.
