The gas/kerosene stoves used at home have inlets for air. What is the purpose of these inlets? What will happen, if these inlets are not provided?
Answers
Gas and kerosene stoves have inlets for air so that air can get to the gas or kerosene
Air or more specifically oxygen present in the air is essential for the burning of the gas or kerosene
Gas or kerosene on reacting with the oxygen present in the air releases energy in the form of heat and light
If these inlets are not provided then the gas or kerosene stove won't work properly as the gas or kerosene cannot burn and produce the enerfy or heat for cooking or other purposes

The gas/kerosene stoves used at home have inlets for oxygen to enter freely.
Explanation:
- Oxygen is essential for combustion. Burning the gas in the presence of oxygen is essential for producing clean flames.
- If there was no air inlet in the stove, the kerosene/gas will not burn till it gets oxygen. And if there I very less air supply then the gas will start to burn with yellow flame.
- So to make the combustion a continuous process inlets of air are made on a stove.
