What is the definition of actual air-fuel ratio?
Which of the following statements about fuel cells is NOT true?a. A single fuel cell produces very low voltage, normally less than one volt.b. A fuel cell produces electricity through an electro-chemical reaction that combines hydrogen and oxygen to form water.c. A fuel cell is composed of two electrodes coated with a catalyst and separated from each other by an electrolyte and from the case by separators.d. In a fuel cell, catalysts are used to ignite the hydrogen; this causes a release of electrons or electrical energy.
technician A says lean ratio of 15:1 to 16:1 provide the best fuel economy. technician B says rich mixture have a ratio below 14.7:1 and provide more power from the engine but greater fuel combustion. who is correct?

CO2 levels are highest when the air-fuel ratiois slightly leaner than stoichiometric.b. The production of CO2 is directly related tothe amount of fuel consumed; therefore,more fuel-efficient engines produce less CO2c. To reduce CO2 levels in the exhaust, engineers are working hard to decrease fuel consumption to keep CO2low.d. The concern for CO2 emissions is one of theprimary reasons for the delayed use of alternative fuels for automobiles.arrow_forward
