How is carbon monoxide formed in a car engine?

Chemistry

alexdok [17]3 years ago

Carbon monoxide is produced in an engine when incomplete combustion happened. In a combustion engine intake valve, it combines the fuel and air (nitrogen and oxygen) and when spark plug ignites it pushes the piston downwards. After that piston will push itself upward and pushes the air that was generated by the combination of those components in the exhaust valve. This is a repeated cycle which keeps the engine running. In a perfect combustion process the air being released are carbon dioxide, water and nitrogen. But when an incorrect ratio of the combination of fuel and air in the engine is processed, carbon monoxide is being generated.

Which of the following expressions is the correct equilibrium-constant expression for the equilibrium between dinitrogen tetroxi
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

D. [NO₂]²/[N₂O₄]

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant expression for a reaction is products over reactants. Since NO₂ has a coefficient of 2, it will become an exponent.

So, it would be:

[NO₂]²/[N₂O₄]

Hope that helps.

Explain what Happens at the saturation point when adding salt to water at room temperature.
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

See below  

Step-by-step explanation:

You won't see much happening. The solution is saturated, so the salt will fall to the bottom of the container and sit there. It will not dissolve.

However, at the atomic level, Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are being pulled from the surface of the crystals and going into solution as hydrated ions. At other places, Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions are returning to the surface of the crystals.

The process is

NaCl(s) ⇌ Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

The rates of the forward and reverse processes are equal, so you see no net change.

How many moles of Fluorine (F2) are<br><br> needed to completely react 8.0<br><br> moles of NF3?
Anna [14]

Answer:

12 moles of F₂

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

N₂ + 3F₂ —> 2NF₃

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of F₂ needed to produce 8 moles of NF₃. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Therefore, Xmol of F₂ will react to produce 8 moles of NF₃ i.e

Xmol of F₂ = (3 × 8)/2

Xmol of F₂ = 12 moles

Thus, 12 moles of F₂ is needed for the reaction.

A cylindrical glass tube of length 27.4cm and radius 4 cm is filled with gas. The empty tube has a mass of 254.3 g. The tube fil
Temka [501]

Density of the gas is 3.05 × 10⁻³ g / cm³.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Volume of the cylinder = π r² h

where r is the radius and h is the height of the height or the length of the glass tube.

Here r = 4 cm and h = 27.4 cm

Volume of the cylinder = 3.14 × 4 × 4 × 27.4 = 1376.6 cm³

We have to find the mass of the gas by subtracting the mass of the tube filled with the substance from the mass of the empty tube.

Mass of the substance = 258.5 - 254.3 = 4.2 g

We have to find the density using the formula as,

$ Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Plugin the values as,

$ Density = \frac{4.2}{1376.6}

              = 3.05 × 10⁻³ g / cm³

So the Density of the gas is 3.05 × 10⁻³ g / cm³.
