Põletusreaktsioonidel
Põletusreaktsioonidel, commonly translated as combustion reactions, are a class of chemical reactions that involve rapid reaction between a substance with an oxidant, usually oxygen, to produce heat and light. This process is also known as burning. The most common type of combustion involves organic compounds, which typically contain carbon and hydrogen. In these reactions, the organic substance reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water, along with the release of energy.
The general equation for the complete combustion of a hydrocarbon is: CxHy + O2 -> CO2 + H2O + energy.
The key indicators of a combustion reaction are the rapid release of energy in the form of
