How is carbon monoxide formed in a car engine?

Chemistry

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.

If you double the volume of a sample of gas and then doubled the volume again without changing its pressure, how would this abso
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

Increasing Volume while maintaining constant pressure requires a proportional increase in Temperature so the gas pressure will be maintained as constant.

Consider...

V₁ = V₁     V₂ = 4V₁

T₁ = T₁      T₂ = ?

Charles Law => T ∝ V at constant P ... that is, increasing temperature generates a proportional increase in volume to maintain constant pressure.

Empirical Charles Law Relation is ...

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂ => T₂ = T₁(V₂/V₁) = T₁(4V₁/V₁) = 4T₁

Increasing Volume of a gas by 4 times requires a 4 times increase in absolute temperature in order to maintain constant pressure.

A 232 mL cup of whole milk contains about 27 mg of cholesterol. Express the cholesterol concentration of the milk in kilograms p
son4ous [18]

Explanation:

Cholesterol concentration = 27 mg/ 232 mL

Change unit mg/ml to kg/m³

1 kg = 1000 g

1 g = 1000 mg

1 kg = 1000000 mg

1 kg = 10⁶ mg

10⁶ mg = 1 kg

1 mg = 10^-6 kg

m³ = 1000 L

1 L = 1000 mL

m³ = 1000000 mL

m³ = 10⁶ mL

10⁶ mL = m³

1 mL = 10^-6 m³

Cholesterol concentration = 27 mg/ 232 mL

27 × 10^-6 kg/ 232 × 10^-6 m³

= 27/232 kg/m³

What is the molecule that senses heat stress in a cell?
nlexa [21]

Answer: -

sigma factor mRNA RpoH sigma H sigma 32

Explanation: -

It is the heat shock sigma factor which activates due to heat. The factor will bind with to the polymerase-core-enzyme. After this other heat ans shock proteins are expressed.

This thus enable the cell to survive higher temperatures. Some of the enzymes that are expressed upon activation are chaperones, proteases and DNA-repair enzymes
