β¦ Synopsis
The gaseous products of combustion of mixtures of potassium chlorate and lactose have been determined and are mainly carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water, and hydrogen, with methane and other hydrocarbons also present (increasingly so as the burning temperature decreases). The experimentally determined major-constituent: gas concentrations are in satisfactory agreement with those predicted assuming that the reaction CO2+H21:~CO+H20, proceeds to equilibrium at the burning temperature.

With a view to investigating the relative rates of combustion of the olefins, known mixtures of ethylene and propene and of ethylene and isobutene were exploded with oxygen, and the proportion of each olefin remaining unburned was found by analysis of the products. One slow combustion was also made
