Q

What type of flame represents complete combustion

A

non-luminous flame

17
Q

color of the flame in a complete combustion

A

Blue

18
Q

Type of combustion where oxygen is insufficient for the burning of the natural gas

A

incomplete combustion

19
Q

type of flame representing incomplete combustion

A

Luminous flame

20
Q

color of flame in an incomplete combustion

A

Yellow

21
Q

Supports the burner

A

base

22
Q

Regulates the air intake

A

Collar

23
Q

Where the mixing of oxygen and fuel gas occurs

A

barrel

24
Q

passageway of oxygen

A

Air hole

25
Q

Passage way of fuel gas

A

Gas spud

26
Q

Which flame produces more heat per given time

A

blue non-luminous flame

27
Q

what kind of flame is more economical? why?

A

non luminous because it produces more heat per given time, thus it lessens the gas consumed/intake

28
Q

A

2:1

29
Q

molar ratio of oxgen gas to methanrle gas in an incomplete combustion

A

3:2
