is it true that every chemical reaction can be reduced to fire

Burning is oxidation, not reduction.
just as true as energy can be turned into anything

Reversed fire

Currently going over alkane reactions in O-chem. Explain how any of this is fire?
>>7781583
Every chemical reaction can be reduced to a transfer of energy.

Ah, I remember O-chem. The days where you didn't have to actually understand what was going on; just imagining that chemistry is an easy little puzzle.
>>7784502
that's one very terrible way to depict reactions
no wonder people keep whining how ochem is just memorization when shitty teachers give them material like this
>>7785124
As someone with plenty of shitty teachers at ChemE, it's really bad, even if you take your time to actually understand shit you can't pass unless you can also do it the shitty way, giving everybody zero incentive to actually learn shit.

I agree... Hated Orgo I for obvious reasons. Orgo II was better, now I'm in III and it looks to be enjoyable.

No. Fire is incandescent gas (shit that got hot by release of bond energy doing that whole blackbody radiation thing.)
All chemical reactions are interactions and modifications of various electronic structures, but this is pretty much tautological.

almost as fire as my next mixtape senpai
