Nonane

<h2 id="combustion-reactions">Combustion reactions</h2>
<p>Nonane undergoes <a href="/facts/Combustion/ohQoWj8z">combustion</a> reactions that are similar to other <a href="/facts/Alkanes/Qam7Hvmf">alkanes</a>. In the presence of sufficient oxygen, nonane burns to form <a href="/facts/Water/0lkXnJPK">water</a> and <a href="/facts/Carbon_dioxide/xGzpppEp">carbon dioxide</a>.
</p>
<a href="/facts/Carbon/ukrgQexo">C</a>9<a href="/facts/Hydrogen/BoYHjl0J">H</a>20 + 14<a href="/facts/Oxygen/acyn6o8r">O2</a> → 9<a href="/facts/Carbon_dioxide/xGzpppEp">CO2</a> + 10<a href="/facts/Water/0lkXnJPK">H2O</a>
<p>When insufficient oxygen is available for complete combustion, the burning products include <a href="/facts/Carbon_monoxide/CKuLtEMJ">carbon monoxide</a>.
</p>
2C9H20 + 19O2 → 18<a href="/facts/Carbon_monoxide/CKuLtEMJ">CO</a> + 20H2O
