Combustion of Ethanol
C2H5OH + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 3H2O
概要
Ethanol burns in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. Ethanol burns with a nearly invisible blue flame. As a biofuel, ethanol combustion is considered partially carbon-neutral because the CO2 released was originally captured by the plants used to produce it.
