Heat, enough to initiate combustion and to maintain it even after
the withdrawal of this source.

III. Flash point is the temperature at which the fuel begins to

to release vapors in a quantity sufficient to mix
with oxygen and begin to ignite when in contact with a source
external heat (the flame of a lit match, for example). However,
at this moment, when removing the combustion heat source, it does not
keep it, as the amount of steam is still small.
IV. The ignition point is the minimum temperature at which a material must

with an external heat source.

II. Heat causes pyrolysis, which is the phenomenon of vapor release from a

This is how combustion occurs.
III. In complete combustion, besides carbon dioxide and water, there is
formation of unstable products (ions), such as carbon monoxide (CO),
nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrates (NO3) and
others.
In incomplete combustion, all the molecules of the fuel react.

Question 11
In a combustion reaction, fuel is the material that will burn;
Correct heat is the element that provides the energy for the reaction to start; and,
Reached 0.50 of
Oxidizer (oxygen) is the gas that allows the reaction to occur. In order for
0.50 the reaction occurs and is maintained only with the presence of these
three elements that are in appropriate concentration and conditions
to react with each other.

Choose an option:
True
False

For combustion to occur and be maintained, it is essential to have the

presence of the three mentioned elements (fuel, heat, and oxidizer) and
that are at suitable concentration and conditions to react with each other
Yes, as stated in the question.
However, it is not just the three. The presence of a
fourth element, the chain reaction, that occurs between the fuel and the
oxidizer, a reaction that releases more heat and more combustible gases
for combustion, maintaining it until all the fuel is burned,
in case there is oxygen and in case there is no extinguishing agent in the environment.

Chain reaction is, therefore, the element that allows combustion.

be self-sustaining, which causes the heat emitted by the fire to be
used to continue heating the fuel and the gases
released also come into contact with oxygen, causing new
combustion reactions. Thus, as burning occurs,
the cycle repeats constantly while there is fuel and
oxidizer.
