  2. Flame test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_test

    A flame test is relatively quick test for the presence of some elements in a sample. The technique is archaic and of questionable reliability, but once was a component of qualitative inorganic analysis .

  3. Bicarbonate indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_indicator

    A hydrogencarbonate indicator (hydrogencarbonate indicator) is a type of pH indicator that is sensitive enough to show a color change as the concentration of carbon dioxide gas in an aqueous solution increases. The indicator is used in photosynthesis and respiration experiments to find out whether carbon dioxide is being liberated. [1]

  4. Gas exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_exchange

    Gas exchange is the physical process by which gases move passively by diffusion across a surface. For example, this surface might be the air/water interface of a water body, the surface of a gas bubble in a liquid, a gas-permeable membrane, or a biological membrane that forms the boundary between an organism and its extracellular environment.

  5. Tracer-gas leak testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracer-gas_leak_testing

    A tracer-gas leak testing method is a nondestructive testing method that detects gas leaks.A variety of methods with different sensitivities exist. Tracer-gas leak testing is used in the petrochemical industry, the automotive industry, the construction industry [1] and in the manufacture of semiconductors, among other uses.

  6. Combustibility and flammability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustibility_and...

    A fire test can be conducted to determine the degree of flammability. Test standards used to make this determination but are not limited to the following: Underwriters Laboratories UL 94 Flammability Testing; International Electrotechnical Commission IEC 60707, 60695-11-10 and 60695-11-20; International Organization for Standardization ISO 9772 ...

  7. Maximum experimental safe gap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_Experimental_Safe_Gap

    Maximum experimental safe gap (MESG) is a standardized measurement of how easily a gas flame will pass through a narrow gap bordered by heat-absorbing metal. MESG is used to classify flammable gases for the design and/or selection of electrical equipment in hazardous areas, and flame arrestor devices. [1]

  8. Combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion

    The flames caused as a result of a fuel undergoing combustion (burning) Air pollution abatement equipment provides combustion control for industrial processes.. Combustion, or burning, [1] is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.

  9. Oxidizing and reducing flames - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidizing_and_reducing_flames

    A reducing flame is a flame with insufficient oxygen. It has an opaque yellow or orange color due to carbon or hydrocarbons [3] which bind with (or reduce) the oxygen contained in the materials the flame processes. [2]
