Combustion

Combustion /kəmˈbʌs.ən/ or burning is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke. Combustion in a fire produces a flame, and the heat produced can make combustion self-sustaining. Combustion is often a complicated sequence of elementary radical reactions. Solid fuels, such as wood, first undergo endothermic pyrolysis to produce gaseous fuels whose combustion then supplies the heat required to produce more of them. Combustion is often hot enough that light in the form of either glowing or a flame is produced. A simple example can be seen in the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen into water vapor, a reaction commonly used to fuel rocket engines. This reaction releases 242 kJ/mol of heat and reduces the enthalpy accordingly (at constant temperature and pressure):

Combustion of an organic fuel in air is always exothermic because the double bond in O2 is much weaker than other double bonds or pairs of single bonds, and therefore the formation of the stronger bonds in the combustion products CO2 and H2O results in the release of energy. The bond energies in the fuel play only a minor role, since they are similar to those in the combustion products; e.g., the sum of the bond energies of CH4 is nearly the same as that of CO2. The heat of combustion is approximately -418 kJ per mole of O2 used up in the combustion reaction, and can be estimated from the elemental composition of the fuel.

    Heart Of Gold

    by: Burning Point

    I hear the voice calling out my name
    Without a choice I have to live with this pain... deep inside
    I see myself as an image of the hurt
    I locked you out... will I ever learn...
    Will I ever learn... ?
    [BRIDGE]
    Stranger came - it brought me to my knees
    Devil's game -- another day is deceased
    Live or die - my options are growing short
    [CHORUS]
    The darkness reveals all it's secrets to me
    From this unknown land that no one has seen
    The beast will arise from the depths of my soul
    It's the end of the Heart of gold
    I sealed the fate when I try to ease the pain
    And at the gates I bow my head down with a shame... I can't take it
    Anymore...
    Out of focus- reality's swept away
    Am I just a pawn -- in this devil's play... in this devil's play
    [BRIDGE]
    Stranger came - it brought me to my knees
    Devil's game -- another day is deceased
    Live or die - my options are growing short
    [CHORUS X2]
    The darkness reveals all it's secrets to me
    From this unknown land that no one has seen
    The beast will arise from the depths of my soul
