reactions

• Synthesis A+B -> AB
• Decomposition AB -> A + B
• Define Combustion: A chemical reaction in which a substance reacts with oxygen to give off heat
• What is the substance that undergoes combustion called: Combustible
• Ignition point: Lowest temperature at which a substance catches fire
• Combustion is an exothermic reaction
• Complete combustion: Hydrocarbon(fuel) + Oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water
• Incomplete Combustion: Hydrocarbon(fuel) + oxygen -> Carbon + Water + Carbon monoxide
• Incomplete combustion occurs when a combustion reaction does not have enough supply of oxygen
• Alkane- Hydrocarbons with a single bond
• Complete Combustion

  Fuel+Oxygen->Water+Carbon Dioxide
