What is the name of the gas used in gas cooker?
Butane & Propane
What can you use hydro carbon gases for?
Hydrocarbon gasses, namely methane, ethane, propane, butane, and isobutane are primarily used as fuels. Methane and ethane are in natural gas, propane is used for grills, butane and isobutne are in lighter fluid.
Is Propane and Butane the same weight?
is there a weight difference in propane verses butain
Why is it propane has a boiling point of -42.1 while butanehas -0.5?
because of difference in structure propane (C3H8) has bigger molar mass then butane (C4H10) the molecules of butane are heavier and the forces between them are stronger as in propane, because of this more energy is needed to transfer liquid butane to gas
Which has more atom's ethane or methane?
definitely ethane, although propane has even more, and butane has more than propane, etc.
What is the name of the gas used in gas cooker?
Butane & Propane
What type gas is used in cookers?
Propane or butane
Percentage of propane and butane in LPG?
30% propane and 70 butane in lpg
Chemical constitution of the LPG?
LPG is a mixture of propane and butane. Propane is the more volatile. Propane is C3H8 and butane is C4H10
What is the mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons used for heating?
For example butane + propane.
What gas is used in modern-day kilns?
mixed of Propane and butane
What is butane used for in everyday life?
Propane and butane are two very similar gases, both used widely for fuel, especially for heating fuel.Butane, while not as commonly used as propane, is nonetheless a very popular heating fuel.Butane is also used in things like camp stoves, and is also seen in many cigarette lighters, and as a propellant in some aerosols.It is represented in the NFPA-704 system in the same way as propane, and like propane is also classified as highly flammable (F+).Butane is, generally speaking, a cheaper fuel than propane; although since it is less common it is not always possible to easily find devices fitted to work with butane. On a per-volume basis, butane is a more efficient fuel than propane, by around 12%. This means that a similar amount of butane and propane will yield more energy for the butane.
Which family of fuel gas do propane and butane belong to?
Propane, butane and its blends belong to the third family.
What can you use hydro carbon gases for?
Hydrocarbon gasses, namely methane, ethane, propane, butane, and isobutane are primarily used as fuels. Methane and ethane are in natural gas, propane is used for grills, butane and isobutne are in lighter fluid.
What are the substances in LPG?
Propane and butane
What LPG contains?
Butane and Propane
Can you use butane on bbq designed for propane?
No!!!!!!!!Added:Don't change!!Both pressure and ideal mixture with air are totally different, so one 'propane'-specific burner can't burn butane properly.
