Internet Colors - Set of 1035 Flame Color 357 - #E25822
Color and temperature of a flame are dependent on the type of fuel involved
in the combustion, as, for example, when a lighter is held to a candle. The
applied heat causes the fuel molecules in the candle wax to vaporize. In this
state they can then readily react with oxygen in the air, which gives off
enough heat in the subsequent exothermic reaction to vaporize yet more fuel,
thus sustaining a consistent flame. The high temperature of the flame causes
the vaporized fuel molecules to decompose, forming various incomplete
combustion products and free radicals, and these products then react with each
other and with the oxidizer involved in the reaction.
