The stoichiometric ratio is approximately:
14.7:1
The stoichiometric ratio defines the proper ratio of air to fuel necessary so that an engine burns all fuel with no excess air. For gasoline fuel, the stoichiometric ratio is about 14.7:1 or for every one gram of fuel, 14.7 grams of air are required. Too much air results in a lean air-fuel mixture that burns more slowly and hotter while too much fuel results in a rich mixture that burns quicker and cooler.
Which of the following is an improper fraction?
\({7 \over 5} \)
A rational number (or fraction) is represented as a ratio between two integers, a and b, and has the form \({a \over b}\) where a is the numerator and b is the denominator. An improper fraction (\({5 \over 3} \)) has a numerator with a greater absolute value than the denominator and can be converted into a mixed number (\(1 {2 \over 3} \)) which has a whole number part and a fractional part.
The catalytic converter output consists primarily of:
water and carbon dioxide
The catalytic converter converts pollutants in exhaust gas into less pollutant substances like carbon dioxide and water.
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume and shape.
solid
An element in a solid state has atoms or molecules that are constricted and do not move freely. Solids maintain a constant volume and shape and exist at a lower temperature than liquids or gases.
Which of Earth's layers has weather?
troposphere
The Earth's atmosphere has several layers starting with the troposphere which is closest in proximity to the surface. Containing most of the Earth's breathable air (oxygen and nitrogen), it's a region with warmer temperatures closer to the surface and cooler temperatures farther away which results in the rising and falling air that generates weather.
This tool is a(n) __________.
punch
A punch is narrow and is used to drive objects like nails (pin punch) or for making guide marks for drilling (center punch) or patterns in wood or metal.
Which of the following temperatures is least like the others?
32°F
Absolute zero is the coldest possible temperature in the universe. In the Kelvin scale, absolute zero is 0K and in the Celsius scale it is -273°C.
The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 7, and width (w) = 7. What is the surface area?
The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):
sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 7 x 7) + (2 x 7 x 7) + (2 x 7 x 7)
sa = (98) + (98) + (98)
sa = 294
