What is it called when combustion takes place rapidly?
Show Answer (Detailed Solution Below)Option 4 : Rapid combustion The correct answer is Rapid combustion.
What is a fast combustion reaction?Explosive combustion reactions involve not only a reaction with oxygen, but also a chemical that promotes oxidation (oxidizing agent). Because of this, the reaction is not limited by the amount of oxygen present and can occur quickly. The result is, well, explosive.
What causes rapid combustion?Rapid Combustion requires external heat energy to start. This reaction results in enormous amounts of light and heat energy. As the name suggests this type of combustion occurs rapidly. Rapid combustion will take place as long as fuel remains.
What are the 3 types of combustion?Combustion can be divided into three types – rapid combustion, spontaneous combustion and explosion.
What is spontaneous and rapid combustion?Spontaneous combustionRapid combustionExplosionThe combustion in which substances suddenly burst into flames without the application of any apparent cause is called spontaneous combustion. The combustion in which substances burn rapidly to produce heat and light is called rapid combustion.
