is candle flame a plasma? (what even is plasma?)
i’ve always wanted to know what really is a flame… is it plasma? is it magic?
what is it? i know it’s a chemical reaction with the oxygen in the air.
In: 201
Fire is a chemical reaction propagated through air, producing heart and light.
The colour of the flame is based on the temperature and also what’s burning.
I can burn propane and produce a yellow flame (lower energy) or if I mix it with oxygen (like in an oxy-propane torch) or could go bright blue and emit enough energy to give you arc eye.
Plasma, as previously said, is shed electrons. Normal fire , isn’t.
