时差N小时 你对火柴了解多少?(下)（在线收听）

It sounds like we have a chemical reaction thing going?

听起来我们还涉及到化学知识？

That's right.

没错。

This starts a chemical reaction that uses the oxidizing agent on the match to produce oxygen gas.

这个过程中引发了一场化学反应，在这个反应中火柴上的氧化剂产生了氧气。

Combined with the heat, the oxygen gas causes the sulfur to catch fire, which then spreads to the wood of the match.

与足够的热量结合后，氧气会引燃硫磺，之后火苗就会逐渐延伸到火柴木棍的另一端。

A strike anywhere match works almost the same way, except the red phosphorus is included in the match head.

那种在任何地方都能点燃的火柴和这种安全火柴的原理基本相同，但是这种火柴的火柴头上含有红磷。

So, a strike anywhere match can be lit by striking the match against any hard surface.

因此，只要将这种火柴的火柴头与硬物表面进行摩擦就可以燃烧。
