Fire Behavior and Combustion

The next reaction is Combustion reaction, which is defined as a type of reaction where a compound and an oxidant is reacted to produce heat and a new product. A description of the general form is the reaction between Hydrocarbon and Oxygen to create Carbon Dioxide and Water (H2O) ( Anne Helmenstine, Combustion Reaction Definition, 2017).

Basic Stoichiometry PhET Lab rvsd 2/2011 Let's make some sandviches! _ Introduction: When we bake/cook something, we use a specific amount of each ingredient. Imagine if you made a batch of cookies and used way too many eggs, or not enough sugar. YUCK! In chemistry, reactions proceed with very specific recipes.

Furthermore, the combustion of propane is considered spontaneous because its ΔH is negative and its ΔS is positive. The enthalpy of the reaction is negative, since the heat is on the product side of the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of propane, C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(l)+ heat. In addition, the entropy of the reaction is positive, which means it increases in disorder, because the number of gaseous particles on the product side is greater than the number of gaseous particles on the reactant side. Therefore, a process is spontaneous if its enthalpy is negative and its entropy is positive, which in this case proves that the combustion of propane is spontaneous since it satisfies both of these requirements.

Temperature: Measure of the average speed of molecules rather than the total amount of heat energy in matter.

A physical change is one that affects only the physical properties of a substance, while a chemical change alters a substance at the molecular level. Physical Properties: A property that can be observed or measured without changing the chemical identity of the substance. Physical properties can be categorized as either intensive or

On the actual day of the fire, the fire planners will again check such conditions as wind and moisture content in the vegetation. The wind direction will determine where the fire is started. Fire crews start the burn with a device called a drip torch. A drip torch is a can of fuel with a flame-carrying wick at the end. When the crewmember tilts the wick toward the ground, a flame streams out and ignites the vegetation. Most of the effort that goes into a prescribed fire is making sure that it is contained in the boundaries set for the fire. Firefighters and fire suppression equipment are near the site if the fire grows out of control (www.nps.gov/wica/fir-why.html, pgs. 1-3).

National Institute of Standards and Technology For years if not decades, firefighters have responded to a reported structure fire that turned out to be a fully involved single room. This fire scenario requires a core set of fire tactics and skills to control and extinguished the fire, but is it this simple? Perhaps twenty years it may have been, but new dangers are lurking in every scenario and may have detrimental outcomes for unsuspecting and unaware firefighters and victims. The National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) agency along with the Underwriters Laboratory (UL) have been conducting research to understand fire behavior and fire dynamics. This research is providing firefighters with new information about how and why

Kelly McManus Physics Honors Block 1 January 5, 2015 Thermal Energy Thermal energy is the energy a substance or system has related to its temperature. This means the energy of moving or vibrating molecules. Atoms and molecules are always in motion. Generally the motion of thermal energy cannot be seen, but instead

Burns occur when cells are subjected to high temperatures which lead to necrosis of the cell because of enzymatic denaturing.

Baking Soda - This common ingredient, when heated produces Carbon Dioxide gas. Since the fire would be getting carbon dioxide, the amount of oxygen the fire would be receiving would be limited resulting in the fire being stopped as oxygen is one thing that is required for combustion.

INTRODUCTION Heat is a form of energy that is transferred between two substances at different temperatures. The flow of the energy is from the object of higher temperature to the object of lower temperature. The heat is measured in units of energy,
