What is combustion? Why does sooty flame not form in unsaturated hydrocarbon? ( 5marks )

Answers

Answered by smartykiller

i think
Unsaturated hydrocarbons like ethyne, also known as acetylene, burn to produce a yellow, sooty flame due to incomplete combustion in air. Theflame is sooty because the percentage of carbon is comparatively higher than that of alkanes and so does not get completely oxidized in air.

I hope it's help you
