What is the difference between flammable and combustible material?
A flammable material has a lower flash point (100F or below) while a combustible material has a flash point of 100F or HIGHER. In other words, it's a lot easier for a flammable material to catch fire than a combustible one because of the minimal amount of energy (heat) required to get it going versus the higher requirement of a combustible material.
Which catches fire more quickly petrol or diesel?
petrol has a lower flash point and is more volatile than diesel.
What is the best fuel to burn?
to this day diesel is the "best" to burn it has a higher flash point than gasoline so it burns hotter and better
What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
Do liquid flammables ignite more easily than combustibles?
In common usage flammable liquids are the same as combustible liquids in terms of their ability to catch fire. However, in the technical usage of hazardous materials transportation and of fire prevention, a combustible liquid has a higher flash point than a flammable liquid and is therefore less easily ignited. So, yes, flammable liquids ignite more easily than do combustible liquids.

Why does a diesel engine use a different type of fuel?
Diesel engines do not require "ignition" to burn diesel fuel--it is powered by the "heat of compression" therefore diesel fuel has a much higher "flash point" than gasoline. If you were to put gasoline in a diesel engine you would probably blow the heads off the engine. Due to lower "flash point" (temperature when fuel ignites). If you were to put diesel fuel in a gasoline powered engine, it would not ignite and engine will not start. Due to higher "flash point).
Why has 1iodobutane higher boiling point than 1chlorobutane?
The molecular mass of iodobutane is higher so density and boiloing point also higher than chlorobutane.
Is olive oil flammable?
about 120 degrees but it is hard to set it on fire with a lighter you will need a blowtourch or another burning thing to light it
What has a higher melting point iron or granite?
Granite has a higher melting point than iron.
Does chlorine have a higher boiling point than iodine?
iodine is having higher boiling point
