Question

describe the condition for burning of fuels that leaf to formation of carbon monoxide​

Answer 1

During complete combustion carbon and hydrogen combine with oxygen (O2) to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). During incomplete combustionpart of the carbon is not completely oxidized producing soot or carbon monoxide (CO). ... Incompletecombustion occurs because of: * Insufficient mixing of air and fuel.

Answer 2

Answer:

Incomplete combustion :

Incomplete combustion occurs when the supply of air or oxygen is poor. Water is still produced, but carbon monoxide and carbon are produced instead of carbon dioxide.

In general for incomplete combustion:

hydrocarbon + oxygen → carbon monoxide + carbon + water

The carbon is released as soot. Carbon monoxide is a poisonous gas, which is one reason why complete combustion is preferred to incomplete combustion.

Gas fires and boilers must be serviced regularly to ensure they do not produce carbon monoxide.

• Most vehicles releases carbon monoxide and some toxic gases.

Inhaling of Carbon monoxide may lead to suffocation and may lead to death.
