Combustion Reaction
By: Ruba Ghawi
What is a Combustion Reaction?
•It is a reaction between an oxidant and a fuel source
What is the Fire Triangle?
• It is a triangle that tells you what you need to make or form a fire.
What is Activation Energy?
• Activation energy is the energy needed to create a chemical reaction.
Different Types of Chemical Reactions
• Combustion• Synthesis• Double displacement• Single displacement• Decomposition• Acid-base
Why is Heat/Energy a necessary part of the fire triangle?
• It is necessary because you need some kind of energy in this case it would be the heat, oxygen, and fuel.
What is Combustion Engine?
• The internal combustion engine is an engine in which the combustion of a fuel , usually fossil fuel, occurs with an oxidizer. (The oxidizer is usually air) in a combustion chamber.
How Combustion engines work
• There are two kinds of engines internal and external combustion engines.
• A Combustion engine is any kind of engine that operates by burning its fuel within the engine.
• After that the gasoline spreads or expands creating energy.
A Document
• Michael Waltrip did something illegal he was charged for using a certain fuel to increase the combustion performance of NASCAR.
• The fuel was an additive fuel.
How does nitrous oxide help engines perform better?
• Well, by having more oxygen available during combustion, and with more oxygen more fuel can be injected. Then the engine will produce more power.
