Flame

3rd Title: Gunpowder QPOEE Question: Which amount of Sulfur(.25 grams, .5 grams, .75 grams, and 1 gram) creates the closest reaction with fire as the store bought gunpowder in terms of size of flame and the time duration of the flame? Knowledge Probe: The equation for the reaction of our gunpowder is 10Na NO3 + 8C + 3S → 2 Na2 CO3 + 3Na2SO4 + 6CO2 + 5N2. This shows that Sodium Nitrate is reacting with Carbon/Charcoal and Sulfur to form Nitrogen, Carbon…

body. Strike the torch and open the acetylene valve slowly until the black nasty smoke goes away. Hold the high pressure lever down and Slowly open the oxygen valve on the torch handle and you’ll see the yellow flame disappear. Make sure you adjust the oxygen valve until the six little flames coming off of the tip are rounded off. You can now successfully cut whatever metal you need to. To properly shut down the oxy acetylene cutting torch you must first cut off…

on top of the tripod. 2. Add the seaweed to the tin lid and place on top of the gauze (try not to use any ‘pods’ of seaweed as they pop when heated which could be dangerous). Light the Bunsen burner and heat the seaweed in the tin lid on the blue flame until it has all been reduced to ash. This step involves heating the seaweed so it is reduced to ash to extract the iodine (in which it is present as an iodide) and make it easier to incorporate with…

cannot burn with water, so a fire will heat the wood to a temperature of 212℉, so that the water inside the wood boils and escapes as steam (Synonym ). As wood dries, at 572℉ it begins to release combustible gases that ignite when they contact an open flame. The gases then burn slowly raise the temperature to around 1100℉. When wood burns its releasing energy that it has been stored for years. As the tree grows, it catches the sunlight and uses it to combine water and carbon dioxide…

“The most tangible of all visible mysteries-Fire,” said by Leigh Hunt brings us to think how amazing and destructive something so beautiful can be. Fire is considered one of the four basic elements and the fact is that nothing is basic about fires. The chemical process that occurs is what we see when the fire dances in front of our eyes. In the safety field there is an increased need for fire knowledge so that we can prevention and train employees on them. There are many components to consider…

as here where Davids face flamed, but it really did not flame, it just turned very red. “Oddly penetrating,her eye stopped on me for an instant and my face flamed (21).” His face did not litterly catch on flames it was just said that way to make it more vivid to the reader. The last literary device is personification. “….. And watched the flames flicker and dance and then, one by one, die (127).” It helps the reader visualize the flames moving as if they were dancing. These literary devices…

To start off my hypothesis is, if a lighter colored candle has more entrapped air then it will burn quicker because they have less wax. I got this idea from engineering.com and my mom. I thought that this experiment would be fun because if I could prove it was correct then darker color candle would be a better option to buy because they will last longer. Next, the purpose of this experiment is to show if color affects the amount of time a candle burns. Going back to what I said in the paragraph…

Wicks n' More is known for their high-quality, hand-poured fragrance candles. I had the chance to sit down with the co-founders and former owners, Beckey and Kim Neal. Wicks n' More was founded in 1998 by mother and daughter, in the garage as a hobby. Both, Beckey and Kim, gave their opinion about a small family business and about the process of the product. This business is successful and is now a multi-million dollar business where candles are sold all over the globe. Beckey and Kim still…

turned on the bunsen burner. We then took one compound from the front table. We took the wooden splint in the water, and scooped up a tiny bit of the substance and placed the whole thing in the middle of the flame. We then observed the color of the flame. The results are that the color of the flame changed. This color change occurred because of the electrons in the compound increasing in energy. Then the energy is discharged and…

spread it online so other people could know. Or if you have a question, some people could have a answer online so you should ask. Rule 7: Help keep flame wars under control. Flaming" is what some people do when they express a strongly held bias without keeping back any emotion. But Netiquette does not let the perpetuation of flame wars, And while flame wars can initially be fun, they get very boring very fast to people who aren't involved in them. Rule 8: Respect other people's privacy.…
