How does a chemical get ignited without external heat
source on reaching its auto ignition temperature

Answer Posted / seeni

The autoignition temperature or kindling point of a
substance is the lowest temperature at which it will
spontaneously ignite in a normal atmosphere without an
external source of ignition, such as a flame or spark. This
temperature is required to supply the activation energy
needed for combustion
