Petrol is primarily characterised by its octane number which defines its ability to burn efficiently and produce more energy per unit. A low octane petrol particle blast inside the engine instead of burning from spark this is called knocking as it produces knocking sound in the engine, to counter this an anti-knocking agent is added to petrol. Earlier Lead was used as an anti-knocking agent but it is highly toxic ,also the researchers who experimented lead with petrol died unnatural death. In later stages when effects of lead toxicity started showing up lead was replaced by benzene compounds as anti-knocking agents this is know as Unleaded petrol. Benzene is carcinogenic and started showing its ill effects after few years especially in densely populated cities. Govts have reduced the concentration of benzene in petrol thereafter and emphasised on implementation of Euro iv standards.

Which chemical has the least solubility at 80 c
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

But since the solubility product constant for each compound is provided, their relative solubility can be ranked from highest to lowest. Depending on the ranking above, it is evident that aluminum hydroxide Al(OH)3 A l ( O H ) 3 has the lowest solubility at 25 Celsius degreesAs temperature increases, its solubility increases as well. Notice, however, that it does not increase significantly. In fact, you can expect to be able to dissolve no more than 40 g of sodium chloride per 100 g of water at 80∘C

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Colligative properties are those substances that depend on the number of substances in the solution, not in the identity of that substance. The property changes the way that it does when the amount of solute is increased because it enables the solute to be scattered more. For example, the freezing point of salt water is lower than that of the pure water due to the salt ions present in water.
