  2. Pyrophoricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrophoricity

    The creation of sparks from metals is based on the pyrophoricity of small metal particles, and pyrophoric alloys are made for this purpose. [2] Practical applications include the sparking mechanisms in lighters and various toys, using ferrocerium; starting fires without matches, using a firesteel; the flintlock mechanism in firearms; and spark testing ferrous metals.

  4. Pyrotechnic composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrotechnic_composition

    A pyrotechnic composition is a substance or mixture of substances designed to produce an effect by heat, light, sound, gas/smoke or a combination of these, as a result of non-detonative self-sustaining exothermic chemical reactions. Pyrotechnic substances do not rely on oxygen from external sources to sustain the reaction.

  5. Arsine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsine

    In its standard state arsine is a colorless, denser-than-air gas that is slightly soluble in water (2% at 20 °C) [1] and in many organic solvents as well. [citation needed] Arsine itself is odorless, [5] but it oxidizes in air and this creates a slight garlic or fish-like scent when the compound is present above 0.5 ppm. [6]

  7. Organometallic chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organometallic_chemistry

    A steel bottle containing MgCp 2 (magnesium bis-cyclopentadienyl), which, like several other organometallic compounds, is pyrophoric in air.. Organometallic compounds are distinguished by the prefix "organo-" (e.g., organopalladium compounds), and include all compounds which contain a bond between a metal atom and a carbon atom of an organyl group. [2]

  8. Diborane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diborane

    As a pyrophoric substance, diborane reacts exothermically with oxygen to form boron trioxide and water: 2 B 2 H 6 + 6 O 2 → 2 B 2 O 3 + 6 H 2 O (ΔH r = −2035 kJ/mol = −73.47 kJ/g) Diborane reacts violently with water to form hydrogen and boric acid: B 2 H 6 + 6 H 2 O → 2 B(OH) 3 + 6 H 2 (ΔH r = −466 kJ/mol = −16.82 kJ/g) Diborane ...
