Define Ignition Temperature

Answer: The minimum temperature at which a volatile material will evaporate into a gas and ignite without the assistance of an external fire source is known as the ignition temperature. A volatile compound becomes extremely deadly when there is no extra ignition source.

• The temperature causes combustion because it offers enough energy to ignite the substance. 
• The ignition temperature of the material will drop when pressure and oxygen levels in the ambient atmosphere rise. 
• Ignition temperature and flash point are not the same things.
