What is more flammable petrol diesel gas kerosine bitumen?
Petrol and kerosene are more flammable than diesel, gas, and bitumen. Diesel and gas require higher temperatures to ignite, while bitumen is a thick, viscous substance with a higher flash point, making it less flammable than the other options.
What is a highly flammable liquid obtained by distillation?
Gasoline is a highly flammable liquid obtained by distillation of petroleum. It is commonly used as a fuel for various internal combustion engines.
Is methane more flammable as oxygen?
Yes, methane is more flammable than oxygen. Methane is a highly flammable gas that can ignite easily in the presence of a spark or flame. Oxygen itself is not flammable, but it can support combustion, making the combination of methane and oxygen highly explosive.
When gas contains 10 percent ethanol how much ethanol is in a gallon of gas?
For every gallon of gas containing 10% ethanol (referred to as E10 gas), it will contain 1/10th gallon of ethanol (about 12 ounces by volume). Ethanol is primarily used to oxygenate the gas and replace the chemical MBTE, which pollutes groundwater. HOWEVER, since most ethanol in the US comes from corn, it is important to note that using ethanol in gasoline causes GREATER pollution than just gasoline alone. This is because it actually takes more energy to produce corn based ethanol than is extracted from it. Until better technologies for ethanol production are available (e.g. algae), it is best for the environment to avoid gas containing ethanol if possible (some states mandate it).
Can you mix non ethanol gas with ethanol gas?
No, its bad for your engine Sure you can mix them as long as your vehicle has a flex fuel engine. You can also mix then in a non flex fuel engine as long as you do not mix more than 10% ethanol with plain gasoline.
What burns better than gas?
The question is vague,what is the question specifically; better as in more flammable, slower burning, etc.
What kind of gas do you put in a 2005 Lincoln town car?
Regular 87 Octane with no more than 10% Ethanol
Is helium more flammable then hairspray?
No, helium is not flammable because it is an inert gas that does not react with other substances. In contrast, hairspray typically contains flammable ingredients such as alcohol or hydrocarbons that can ignite and burn.
Is gasoline more explosive than gas?
In general gasoline is not more explosive then gas although it depends on the conditions and the gas. Probably you are referring to natural gas, the gas piped into homes which is predominantly methane. In general flammable gasses are more explosive than flammable liquids because they are mixed up with atmospheric oxygen. This is why modern cars have fuel injection which sprays the petrol to make it more easily combustible. In fact liquid petrol is not explosive at all but because it is volatile a layer of vapour forms above the surface of the liquid which is explosive. The mix of fuel and oxygen is the critical factor in whether something is explosive. Some gases, such as the noble gases are not flammable at all.
What makes a car burn more gas than usual?
Possibilities:Higher proportion of ethanol in the fuelA lot of extra weight in the vehicle
What state is gasoline in at room temperature?
a gas it becomes a gas at -42 C room temperature is 20 C
Why is super unleaded gas in Iowa cheaper than unleaded 87?
Because it has Ethanol in it. The Ethanol increases the octane and lowers the price.AnswerBecause it has ethanol in it. Ethanol actually decreases the power of gasoline, and subsequently decreases mileage as well. Interestingly, it also makes gasoline more expensive- BUT - this is Iowa, and the government is subsidizing the addition of ethanol to gasoline. In Missouri, where the government does not subsidize, gasoline with ethanol is MORE expensive than its Iowa Counterpart. Long story short, its cheaper because of government subsidies.
