wake,
..Like tobacco smoke, wood smoke contains fine and ultrafine particles as well as carbon monoxide, formaldehyde and sulfur dioxide.
...deleted Holy Quote....

Wood contains no sulfur. Only poor burns produce carbon monoxide and soot. Properly burned wood doesn't produce either. Formaldehyde burns.

Nope. It burns.

All chemistry. Aircraft, paper, sewage treatment, house paint, and even your food are there because of theories of science.

No need.
James___ wrote:

I believe wake has a far better idea of fire than you do. I understand fire quite well, regardless of what is burning.
James___ wrote:
..And this is where we get to why you and itn win the debate. Glucose is supposed to be what burns when wood is being burned.
...deleted Holy Link and Quote....

Correct. Glucose, which is both cellulose and lignin, forms formaldehyde and burns. In properly burned wood, the only result (besides the ash) is carbon dioxide and water.
James___ wrote:
..1/2 of the molecules produced are supposed to be water. I tend to disagree with this. .

Too bad. That's exactly what it is. The end result of any carbon based fuel burning is water and carbon dioxide. Anything that comes out is only the result of an imperfect burn.

Presenting the kinds of references you do is simply using someone else's argument as your own. It is lazy thinking. I automatically tend to discard such 'references'. Learn to think for yourself. If you wish to present a reference for data, that data must conform to the requirements I have set out in the Data Mine for me to accept it.
James___ wrote:
..And if anyone wants to know, farts burn because the gas a parson is expelling through their rectum is methane (CH4). That's what also smells around dairy farms, etc..

Methane is odorless and colorless. You can't smell it or see it. The stink is caused by hydrogen sulfide, not methane.
James___ wrote:
..And the hv is the spark that starts forest fires. Of course as wake and itn have repeatedly pointed out, I don't know chemistry..
Neither methane nor hydrogen sulfide is the fuel for a forest or grass fire.
James___ wrote:
And I think it's sad that in chemistry they think that glucose burns because of oxidation..

Why? Do you like glucose or something? Is it oxidation that bothers you?
James___ wrote:
It'd need a pretty low flash point for that..

WRONG. Flashpoint has nothing to do with oxidation. Even high flashpoint fuels can burn.
Glucose not only has a fairly low flashpoint in dusty environments, but there is plenty of oxygen available as well. The result is an explosion. Ever hear of a silo fire?
James___ wrote:
Kind of where knowing how fires start helps to consider that..

I know exactly how fires start and how to put them out. I'm an aircraft mechanic.
James___ wrote:
There are specific elements needed for a fire to occur and they don't seem to put it all on a single web page, why wake would've missed it
.

It all fits on a single web page. Indeed, it fits into a single icon. Go look up the so-called 'fire triangle'.

All you need for any fire is heat, oxygen, and fuel (something that emits heat when oxidized).

James - what do you propose as being debated? There is no debate about what is produced by burning wood. Why are you claiming things that do not exist? It isn't as if you couldn't simply look up what causes wood to burn and what the byproducts are.

Your idea that oxidation is the only form of chemical reactions aided by or producing heat is something else that any idiot could look up.

So why are you making claims completely counter to known FACT?

Careful, Wake. It obviously is not a fact to James. It is only a fact to you and me here so far (and to most of the chemistry community). To James, it's an argument (at least until possibly recently).

Remember, a 'fact' is not a Universal Truth.

A 'fact' is nothing more than an assumed predicate.

Also, combustion and its products are not theories of science. They are observations. The theory part of any combustion process is how to best represent it, or in identifying common elements of the combustion process various substances and extending that to unknown substances.

..Gosh Wake, Glucose doesn't burn but it can be metabolized. The information that you are going by is found on the net. As you said, anyone can do a search and find it.
..Chemistry allows for C6H12O6 + hv. In a tree it would be heat which creates the flash point. A flash point is when a solid or liguid gives off a vapor. Any idiot knows that gasoline does not burn. You can put out matches or a lit cigarette in it. That would not start a fire.
On the other hand, to ignite the vapor it gives off because of it's low flash point will start a fire. I am not sure why glucose would be different. And as you've shown all you know is what anyone can search online just as ITN does.
..I am really surprised that you and ITN miss so much. When
C6H12O6 + hv > 3CH4 + 3CO2 then the CH4 can burn because it is a gas and not a solid. Solids do not burn, not in a fire. Pyrotechnics are solid chemical reactions that burn but the heat they release is not fire but is considered a spark hv. Notice the difference ? Fireworks are chemical based reactions, a warm fire in the fireplace is plasma being released by a gas burning;
CH4 + O2 > CO2 + H2O + hv.
..In wood, C6H12O6 + 3O2 > 3CO2 + 3H2O. This is what's accepted. Do you know what the problem with this is ? You and ITN can explain it to everyone, okay ? You both are familiar with chemistry, right ? You both have made that claim already while stating that I am ignorant of it. And Wake, I think the people watching you and ITN making fools of yourselves are benefiting from these exchanges.
..I'll give you both sometime to think of a response. The answer I think is kind of obvious.

Metabolized means being digested by living things. Metabolism releases an equivalent amount of energy to burning, but in a slower, more controlled, and less direct way.

Glucose is a hydrocarbon and in the presence of oxygen can react if enough heat is present to cause a reaction - it BURNS.

I am really surprised that you will argue things this simple.

Is this so difficult for you to understand?

..I don't think the heat that CO2 stores can influence our environment but then the 2 of you would say I am wrong for not being able to grasp such a simple concept. I just don't get it. Maybe you 2 can explain it to me ?

..@Everyone else,
.No reason why C6H12O6 + hv > 3CH4 + 3H2O can't happen. Then in the body CH4 can burn (CH4 + O2) releasing CO2 and 2H2O. Of course hydrohen can burn as well https://www.quora.com/What-does-hydrogen-give-off-when-burned. That is a balanced equation. And with wood, water puts out fires while they say 1 CO2 molecule is released for each H2O molecule.

It is not possible to store or trap heat.

The thermal energy in CO2 is the same as the thermal energy in any other gas in the atmosphere. It is the same temperature as the gas immediately surrounding the CO2.

CO2 is not a magick material. It cannot create energy. It cannot store or trap heat. Like everything else on Earth, it radiates energy into space due to it's own temperature.

Absorption is not warming.

..@Everyone else,
.No reason why C6H12O6 + hv > 3CH4 + 3H2O can't happen. Then in the body CH4 can burn (CH4 + O2) releasing CO2 and 2H2O. Of course hydrohen can burn as well https://www.quora.com/What-does-hydrogen-give-off-when-burned. That is a balanced equation. And with wood, water puts out fires while they say 1 CO2 molecule is released for each H2O molecule.

Water does NOT put out all fires. It only puts out certain fires. In some cases, the presence of water can actually START a fire, or even an explosion.

Try chucking some sodium metal into water to see what I mean.

It puts out a wood fire which is what was being discussed and not Delta
(Class D) type fires. I learned this in firefighting school.

You obviously never went to firefighting school. Water won't even put out a wood fire unless there is sufficient quantity of it to keep free oxygen from getting to the fire.

@All,
..What I'm not being allowed to say is that burning wood doesn't produce water.
.If it did then the smoke from a wood fire would be "wet" or fog like. It would be damp. It's not.
..There is a possible answer but I cannot say it. There might also be a way to show through mathematics or calculus but we won't mention that. At the moment Wake and ITN are teaching me about science. If they can't post the answer then I can't. I'm learning from them.

It isn't sinking.

Erosion will move sand out to sand bars, but that's not sinking.

Define 'global warming' or 'climate change' without using circular definitions.
islands don't sink because of undefined buzzwords.

You ARE allowed to say it. You just said it. It's wrong, but nothing is preventing you from saying it.

Wood produces water when burned. So does oil, methane, glucose, or anything else that happens to have hydrogen in it.

WRONG. A fog is LIQUID water.

While it's weird that burning anything with hydrogen in it produces water as one of the results, it nevertheless is true. The water produced isn't enough to put out the fire. Because of the heat of burning wood, the water stays as vapor and drifts away from the fire along with any smoke.

If you are burning the wood properly (completely), you will have no smoke from the fire.

Why do you continue your charade? Water quenches a fire by lowering the heat to below the temperature of combustion. You claimed to have fire training in the Navy. So how is it that you missed this which is a major part of the training?

What is getting out of hand is your belief that somehow currents and weather are supposed to be static.

Tell us HOW we had the Roman Warm Period, the following cool period, the Medieval Warm Period followed by the Little Ice Age?

Exactly what goes on in your head? The world's greatest oceanographer tells us that ocean levels are increasing so slowly that it is difficult to determine if they are rising at all. But then that would contradict a genius like you wouldn't it?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=poZ0pEOtFYM

Dr. Roy Spencer - the man who was the lead scientist on the NASA weather satellite program shows that the temperature has not been rising for the last 39 years but you know a hell of a lot more than he does, don't you?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGn-Vcxztng

What's it feel like to have the rug pulled out from under you? Do you continue to insist that it isn't true? That you're still standing?

Five of the Solomon Islands are going to sink? In fact they are gaining more ground than they are losing to erosion.

Prince Edward Island is doomed? Seems like the sort of thing that you can get behind. Some phony claim by some phony "scientist" with no backing is bound to be correct isn't he? Why it would make the slightest difference if that arm of the Gulf Stream which I warrant you know nothing about - has been there for centuries and HOLY COW was just discovered.

A series of non-sequitur statements. None of these have anything to do with any other of these.

To repeat - why do you think that this current is either new or permanent?

When someone says, "If this continues for another 100 years bad things are going to happen", most intelligent people are going to notice that, "if this continues for another 100 years" and not, "bad things are going the happen".
