fas Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 I have heard an interesting question somewhere, but i haven't been able to find a suitable answer. Could anyone tell me what a flame is?
fafalone Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 Light emitted by combustion of a chemical.
fafalone Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 In a combustion reaction electrons move to a higher energy state, emitting photons based on what orbital they're in, which accounts for the color of a flame.
YT2095 Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 do a Google search for "first ionisation energy" too, that`ll help a little another more simple way, think of it as Gasses so hot that they glow.
YT2095 Posted September 9, 2003 Posted September 9, 2003 fas, If you don`t mind me asking, what prompted you ask that, it`s a good question I`m fascinated by flame colors (I do Pyrotechnics) if you want to go deeper into it, feel free to ask
wolfson Posted November 18, 2003 Posted November 18, 2003 Its a basic zone of burning gases including fine suspended matter (DISS) associated with rapid combustion leads to a hot, glowing mass of burning gas or vapor.
