what problems will arise if a fuel has an ignition temperature lower than the average room temperature ? name the type of combustion that will occur in such a case.​

Answer»

n Temperature or KINDLING Temperature :                     The minimum temperature to which a combustible substance must be heated , before it CATCHES fire is called Ignition Temperature.Generally room temperature is considered as 25 DEGREES Celsius. If ignition temperature is less than AVERAGE room temperature then :---> The fuel will burn spontaneously [No external agent is required to burn the fuel]---> This kind of combustion is known as Spontaneous Combustion.Examples:When a Phosphorous is left out in the open at room temperate for some time , it burns by itself.Forest fires and coal mines are also example of spontaneous combustion.
