\huge{\mathtt\red{Answer✓}}

\huge{\mathtt\blue{Combustion}}

  • the process of burning something.

"the combustion of fossil fuels"

  • Combustion, or burning, is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant.
  • Usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.

\huge{\mathtt\pink{ignition \: temperation}}

  • The ignition temperature of a substance is the least temperature at which the substance starts combustion.
  • Substances which spontaneously ignite in a normal atmosphere at naturally ambient temperatures are termed pyrophoric.
  • the lowest temperature at which a combustible substance when heated takes fire in air and continues to burn. — called also autogenous ignition temperature.

\huge{\mathtt\pink{Calorific \:  value  \: of \:  a \:  fuel }}

  • Calorific value is the amount of energy released or produced when 1 kg of fuel burns or any other substance is burnt in the presence of oxygen and the products of combustion are cooled to STP. Its SI unit is kJ/kg.
  • The calorific value of a fuel is the quantity of heat produced by its combustion – at constant pressure and under “normal”
  • (standard) conditions (i.e. to 0oC and under a pressure of 1,013 mbar).
