A liquid-propellant rocket or liquid rocket uses a rocket engine burning liquid propellants. Liquids are desirable propellants because they have reasonably high density and their combustion products h

…The highest specific impulse chemical rockets use liquid propellants (liquid-propellant rockets). They can consist of a single chemical (a monopropellant) or a mix of two chemicals, called bipropellants. Bipropellants can further be divided into…
Bipropellant liquid rockets are simple in concept but due to high temperatures and high speed moving parts, very complex in practice.
