whate is the fire flame is ?and to whate kind of material it is (solid ,gas ,liquid)?

Question

i not able to categorie the fire flame material and its properties it is costitunt of atoms and particles such as different material , i didnt mean heat but the flame it self

Answer 1

fire is not plasma

fire is a complex mixture of solids and gasses

a very clean flame (such as you get with burning pure hydrogen), with no tiny glowing solids in it, is often hard to see

the light of course comes from the energy released as the material combusts

much of the time, the actual combustion takes place in the gas phase

the flame above a candle is mostly made vaporized (gaseos) parafin burning in the gas phase

the shape of the flame reveals a "plume" like most gasses make when released in a light breeze, which, in this case comes from the hot air rising around the flame

Answer 2

Anybody who says in any way that fire is a form of plasma is 1, a complete and total idiot and 2, someone with absolutely no knowledge as to what a plasma really is because if a flame was made up of plasma it would do these things:
1. It would be either attracted or repelled by the poles of a magnet or any form of magnetic field
2. It would induce an electric current in any closed circuit of any type of conductor of electricity when part of the conductor was placed in the flame
3. Would give off a significant magnetic field that would be very easy to measure
And finally
4. If it were plasma, the energy necessary to ionize the material burning in order to produce a "plasma flame" would require about 100 times the amount of energy, at the least, than what is normally given off by a flame.

And to answer your original question, a flame would be considered a solid because all a flame is made of is particles of soot or unburnt fuel that is heated until it is hot enough to give off light.

Answer 3

I don't believe fire is "plasma" (the fourth state of matter). Fire is the oxygen "burning" out of a material, leaving mostly carbon ash behind. Oxygen is a gas. Fire is simply a hot gas. For a gas to be plasma, it has to be ionized (stripped of some if not all of its electrons).

Answer 4

Fire is just extremely hot gas. This is usually just air being heated up as a reaction which gives out heat (eg. burning wood) occurs. It doesn't usually involve any chemicals unless you're burning liquids or gases - where it depends on the chemicals involved, but oxygen is usually involved because burning things uses up oxygen, and carbon dioxide is often given off when things are burnt.

Answer 5

Flame is a chemical reaction. It is categoized as plasma because there is not really another "state" it could be in.

Answer 6

I'm going to guess that it's gas, and it is heat and light, the byproducts of the chemical reaction of....wow good question. Dumb answer. I'm so dumb. I hate myself.

Oh....plasma.....hmm. Yay something to look up.

Answer 7

its fire

the catalyst

brings the wax from solid to liquid to gas

T.H. Huxley wrote something nice about a candle 100 years ago I think

Answer 8

Fire isn't any of those things. It's "plasma."

Answer 9

try plasma

Answer 10

plasma
